First sentence: Merely to inform you that the marvelous, malicious, maundering Mister Punch, last seen cavorting in Christopher Reilly's and Darron Laessig's The Comical Tragedy of Punch and Judy (Slave Labor Graphics, 2002), has returned to the printed page should be enough of a jolt to cause you to stop reading my words in these pages, rush to the sales counter of the store where you have stumbled across this volume in your innocent browsing, hastily throw money at the cashier, then rush home with your purchase to spend hours of delight watching our antihero with the croissant-shaped head wreak his glorious mayhem impartially on babies, mothers, animals and a certain Winter Solstice Demiurge who is not exactly what he purports to be.
