Wilson
By Daniel Clowes Publisher: D&Q ISBN: 987-1-77046-007-2 Wilson thinks he's a great guy. He's in tune, he's incisive, he's curious and he's thoughtful.

Dilbert: 14 Years Of Loyal Service In A Fabric Covered-Box
By Scott Adams Publisher: Andrews McMeel ISBN: 978-0-7407-7365-5 Scott Adams is a cartoonist who, by his own admission, can't draw, so considering his Dilbert cartoons have been running for 20 years and are now in 23 languages, it must be the sense of humour that's winning through.
