Mel Bowling is the unhappy, out-of-touch creator of a very bad,
daily newspaper comic strip called Freddy Ferret (a cross between
Dilbert and Garfield). He spends most of his time listening to Rush
Limbaugh and coming up with horrible catchphrases to merchandise,
while his sweatshop cast of studio assistants grind out all the
hard work. Sweatshop is a hilarious situational comedy from
acclaimed author Peter Bagge (Buddy Does Seattle, Woman Rebel: The
Margaret Sanger Story) that ingeniously incorporates the visual
styles of cartoonist guest stars like Stephen DeStefano (Popeye)
and Johnny Ryan (Prison Pit) to give voice to Bowling s colorful
cast of misfit, aspiring cartoonists (plus a cameo by Neil Gaiman
), all attempting to make it big like their boss, but on their own
terms. Originally published as a six-issue series by DC Comics in
2003 that was never collected, this is one of the best and most
undervalued works of one of the key voices of his generation."
