Is nothing sacred? Not to John Callahan, about whom "The Far Side" creator Gary Larson says, "There are two basic reasons I enjoy Callahan's work so much: first, I think his cartoons are just plain funny; second, he makes my own work seem normal." Callahan does a number on canines in his book Get Down!! Dog Cartoons. He's also the author of a memoir that stands tall in American literature: Don't Worry, He Won't Get Far on Foot, which tells the story of how he got drunk, crashed his VW, became a quadriplegic, and won fame as a writer and cartoonist. He has no shame, no self-pity, and no respect for any shibboleth. Find out why Jonathan Kellerman, Richard Pryor, and pretty much anybody who discovers him is a lifelong Callahan fan. --Tim Appelo
