Described as "Japan's version of Garfield, Heathcliff, and Krazy Kat all rolled into one," Makoto Kobayashi's What's Michael? mixes all-too-real feline folly with hilarious fantasy scenarios to create one of graphic fiction's true comedic originals. From the upsides of leftovers and air conditioning to the downsides of litter boxes and neutering, the laughs proceed without delay. Even people who hate cats love What's Michael?! Translation by Dana Lewis and Toren Smith (Oh My Goddess!, Blade of the Immortal)

"The humor derives from his consummate catness running up against his owners' everyday humanity in ways any cat lover (or hater)will recognize."
