A man, bleating to anyone who will listen about the evils of current zoning laws, meets a woman who works in pharmaceutical marketing. They begin a relationship. They get married. From their union springs the idea of the Hypermutt: a many-headed mass of dogs that absorbs each new dog it encounters.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"\u003eThis debut graphic novel from Chicago cartoonist Max Huffman, about an awful power couple who defy God and nature in creating a hound of hell for our times, is at turns a rich satirical fable, a white-collar black comedy, and a stylistic tour de force blending elements of abstraction, cubism, mid-century modernism, and visual sight gags. One of the most visually distinctive and funny graphic novels in recent memory, Dogtangle is also underpinned with a deep mistrust of corporate and cultural hegemony, cementing its relevance in our increasingly oligarchal times.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Fantagraphics","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52175786705194,"sku":"73991","price":20.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/2879\/4922\/files\/Cover_d6dc500a-ec54-464a-b195-3e344671bdb1.jpg?v=1785967737","url":"https:\/\/stuartngbooks.com\/products\/dogtangle-73991","provider":"Stuart Ng Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
