Comic Collection Launch: Hi, It's Me Again w/ Asher Perlman

Join us for an evening of wit and wonder as Emmy-winning cartoonist Asher Perlman shares insights from his new collection, Hi, It's Me Again. Join an unforgettable evening proving why Stephen Colbert calls Asher “very funny” and Ben Stiller describes Asher’s cartoons as “the kind of funny that makes you question what it is to be a person.”

About the book:

Hi, It’s Me Again is the second cartoon collection from Asher Perlman, who NPR’s Scott Simon calls “one of today’s great New Yorker cartoonists.” A follow-up to his debut, the bestselling Well, This Is Me, Asher’s sophomore effort is the perfect addition to any coffee table, bookshelf, or nightstand. 

Stephen Colbert calls Asher “very funny” and “keenly attuned to the inherent strangeness of existence.” Ben Stiller describes Asher’s cartoons as “the kind of funny that makes you question what it is to be a person.” And Judd Apatow says, “Asher Perlman can do in one frame what I need two hours and seventeen minutes to accomplish half as well!” 

A well-proportioned blend of single-panel cartoons and longer narrative pieces, Hi, It’s Me Again has it all, from a vampire stress-drinking blood to a pinata pressuring her son into joining the family business. 

A much-anticipated release, one thing is for sure: Hi, It’s Me Again is the best compilation of Asher’s cartoons since his last cartoon compilation, and it will certainly remain the best at least until his next.
