"'If someone doesn't criticize you, how do you know they love you?' asks Tony Murphy's anxiety-prone hero in this wry and funny analysis of MAS (Multiple Anxiety Syndrome). It's All About You is an urban comic fable that details the persistent ignorance of smart people."
-- Jules Feiffer
"Tony Murphy draws delightfully jittery, caffeine-fueled comics that confirm what you've been thinking the whole damn time: It IS all about you!"
-- Keith Knight, Creator, The Knight Life
"'It's All About You' is an excellent strip -- I like the looseness of the drawing. Now where's my coffee?"
-- Richard Thompson, Creator, Cul de Sac
"Tony Murphy's caffeinated line looks like a lost art in the sea of today's computer-neutered dailies, and his characters gripe, obsess and endure with style. Where have they been hiding this guy?”
-- Ken Dahl, Eisner Award-Nominated Author of Monsters

When it comes to cartoons, these are the best. I got the book for ourselves, and I told my son in California I would send it to him when we finish it. But then I thought, why be so cheap? Send him his own. So that it what we are doing. I recommend this book because the cartoons are artful, they connect and express, and the body language is so good.
Michael need a hit and he needs it bad. Wait, it's not really a "hit" he needs but a shot, no make it a double shot. Michael is in real trouble. His drug of choice? Caffeine. And when the steaming water hits grounds, it's like elixir dripping down from on high. Coffee is life. Tony Murphy's new book, a collection of daily comic strips, is good for the voyeur in all of us. What could be more entertaining than watching a neurotic stumble, tip-toe, and crawl through life? Murphy's characters are so real you feel like you could run into them at any cafe in the world. Did I mention that I laughed -- out loud? If you're stuck for a present for that special someone who squirms at the idea that he or she is actually in a relationship or for your long-suffering Barista order of copy of It's All About You: A Daily Comic Strip right now. --
