There is a man who stares at “Goats” all day long. He is not a psychic military man played by Daniel Ocean; he is not even a lonely rancher struggling to reconcile urges with morality on the great Western plains. No, it is heroic hero of all he surveys Jonathan Rosenberg, the author of the long-running and highly-acclaimed comic “Goats”, and he stares holes in that thing every dang day, making comics and strange products for you to enjoy. And now here we are with them!

“Goats” is, as you may guess from the title, about some guys who eat God and thus trigger the apocalypse. The latest volume in the very shiny Random House/Del Rey series is called The Corndog Imperative. If you pre-order it from us right now (we get ‘em in a few weeks) you will automatically get free bookmarks! But you won’t even use them because the book is downright unputdownable. Also as a public service we are offering you a stress lemon and a squeeze potato so you can work out the tension that will inevitably arise, borne of sheer professional jealousy, at the excellence of The Corndog Imperative.

We also got a new “Goats” shirt about turtles and the Foundations of the Universe! Like all of Jon’s work, it contains no actual goats, but it does accurately and with a high degree of scientific rigor portray the fundaments of the firmament and the wriggling pillars of livestock that comprise it. Click through to see the jokey part.

Now, at this point I’m sure you’re suitably impressed with Mr. Rosenberg’s fine offerings, and that’s without even mentioning the many colorful prints he has newly made available against the better judgment and non-binding censures of the Spartan Wall Decorators Association of Greater New York State. I hardly even have to mention that for a limited time, personalization is available for Corndog Imperative books and even, against all reason, on 2-book discount packs as well. And I should surely bite my tongue rather than state the obvious fact that Jon totally wants to do Ayn Rand. All these things are evident at the slightest glance. The Corndog Imperative rolls into the world on December first and all orders will ship promptly and blessedly thereafter.
