Altergott is a master craftsman with a compulsion for the strange; his most famous character, Doofus - a panty-huffing hillbilly with a Dutchboy hairdo - is the star of this show.

The book collects almost every Doofus story from the character's long history, and features an introduction by Ghost World author Daniel Clowes. With a built-in audience from Doofus's regular appearances in Seattle's The Stranger newsweekly, Peter Bagge's best-selling comic book series Hate, numerous comics anthologies and two solo comic books - not to mention years of word of mouth from comics greats like Clowes, Crumb, and Zwigoff, all of whom sing Altergott's praises- this first Doofus collection is sure to be a cult favorite amongst intellectuals and philistines alike.
