"A well needed laugh in stressful times"
The stressful thing about a recession is this, you and I can’t do much about it. When crying and hand wringing have run their course, there is only one other option - laughter. Jungmin Joo’s second cartoon book on lulu is called ‘Need a Bailout’ and it reflects the world around us in wickedly clever cartoons.

You will find all the themes of the day here, the housing bubble, the bailout, job loss, corporate greed, and the relentless pursuit of the dollar. The cartoons rival those you’ve seen in the newspaper and it’s a given that one or two will end up tacked to the walls of your cubical.

Joo’s work has appeared... More > in the Saturday Evening Post, Sun, Women’s World and other prestigious publications. As I read through his book, I wondered what the next page would bring and found myself laughing on a number of occasions and thinking on many others. If you enjoy his book, you can also check out his wbsite and see some more samples. I especially liked the car salesman telling his client that the car was ‘packed chock-full with anti-accidents.’

The price of this collection can’t be beat, it’s especially cost effective as a download. I appreciate Joo’s approach to the recession and life. If you can’t ignore it and can’t fix it… laugh at it.
