For three semesters, Jockular was the Observer’s top comic, not because it was funnier or better-drawn than anything else but because it appeared above the only other strip. The authors were placed on probation for offending Charlie Weis, had a town hall meeting held against them by Saint Mary’s, and were banned from Pigtostal for the next millenium. Included in this collection are all 210 strips, uncensored and accompanied by hate mail and author commentary.
“Jockular: Controversial student comic strip in The Observer that has won popularity by ignoring political correctness. Among Jockular's "crimes" are calling SMC Chicks "parasites," mocking Stephen Hawking's ALS and depicting Charlie Weis demonstrating to the South Bend press corps how to turn water into wine.”
