Descripción Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. Wildcat Anarchist Comics collects the drawings of Donald Rooum, mostly (but by no means entirely) from the long-running Wildcat cartoon series that has been published in Freedom newspaper since 1980. Rooum does not just purvey jokes, but makes the drawings comical in themselves, getting the humour in the line, provoking laughter even in those who do not read the captions or speech balloons. The chief characters in the strip are the Revolting Pussycat, a short-fused anarchist who is furious and shouty; and the Free-range Egghead, an intellectual who would like anarchism to be respectable but sometimes appears foolish. Governments, bosses, and authoritarians are presented as buffoons, and quite often, so are anarchists. This thoughtful and delightful collection includes strips from The Skeptic and many more, all beautifully colored for the first time by Jayne Clementson. The book also includes a lively autobiographical introduction discussing Rooum s role in the celebrated 1963 Challoner case, a conspiracy among police officers to discredit non-violent demonstrators.
