内容简介


Darrin Bell's "Candorville" is an insightful comic strip for today's world. Brutally honest but still evenhanded, "Candorville" takes on some of society's toughest issues, giving readers something to think about-as well as smirks, chuckles, and guffaws."Another Stereotype Bites the Dust" is a collection of creator Darrin Bell's "Candorville" cartoon strip. In this thought-provoking strip Bell uses a diverse group of friends to paint a real yet humorous portrait of inner-city America. An educated underachiever, Lemont Brown is an aspiring writer. Socially conscious, he wants to work at changing the world and infusing it with wisdom and justice--if only he could pay his rent. Lemont's childhood friend Susan Garcia is a book-smart and street savvy Mexican-American woman who won't let bigotry or any glass ceiling keep her down. And Lemont's friend Clyde (aka "C-Dog") is a streetwise thug and undiscovered rapper who'd rather mooch off his mother than get a job."Another Stereotype Bites the Dust" deals with some tough issues--poverty, homelessness, racism, and personal responsibility--with knowing irony and incisive satire. Bell uses edgy dialogue and modern situations to jab everything from political correctness to political spinning, from political hindsight to office politics, making it a hit with the socially aware.
