Hey, Mister Minicomic #6
$3.00 Add to cartWhoa! In the rush to get our yarn shop open (yes, I quit my job and Carol and I are opening a store) I almost forgot to sell my latest book. But, here it is! It debuted at SPX ’15 and takes me back to my minicomic roots (and also features possibly the most sacrilicious panel I’ve ever drawn! #forever12)

HEY, MISTER: Come Hell or Highwater Pants
$14.95 Add to cartNAMED to the A.V. Club List of BEST Graphic Novels of 2014!
“Hey, Mister is bleakly, existentially funny in the most dissipated deadpan manner possible. Imagine The Iceman Cometh directed by Terry Zwigoff, and you might come close. There’s nothing flashy or experimental in Sickman-Garner’s technique. He’s an indie cartoonist of the old school, with a keen understanding of the fact that the funniest drawings are often the ugliest. If you like ugly, there’s lots of ugly here. And why wouldn’t you want ugly? Ugly is hilarious. “
Satan is sad as hell and can't take it anymore so what does he do? He abandons his post and strikes out for a better life in a better world. But pity the poor immigrant. Fitting in is hard, even with a shiftless lowlife like like his old pal Mister. Meanwhile, across town, Jesus is suffering trials of his own. Two-thousand years removed from his big finish, and he's stuck wondering what to do next. Their paths cross–everything that rises must converge–and Jesus can't resist the ultimate redemption story: Save Satan's soul. The whole Hey, Mister crew joins in the fun of the ultimate road trip to hell but someone else is watching and he's not pleased. With the forces of the cosmos in flux, and Mister, Young Tim and Aunt Mary at the center of the storm, who will come along to put everything its place?

HEY, MISTER (Vol 3): The Fall Collection
$12.95 Buy from Top Shelf Comix“Funny, wacky, compelling, and best of all, surreal. Leave it to Top Shelf to find an artist like Pete and to put his stuff together in such a nice, neat package.”
–Factsheet 5“Hey, Mister comics are laugh-out-loud, tears-rolling-down-your-face funny.” — Karon Flage, Sequential Tart
This trade paperback collects issues #5-#8 of my four-time Eisner and Ignatz award nominated series. It includes “Behind The Green Door,” “The Trouble With Jesus,” “Eyes On The Prize,” & “Dial 'M' for Mister,” and as a bonus, also includes my cartoon account of who I am and why I do what I do. Join Mister, Young Tim, Aunt Mary and the beloved Hideous Mutants as they hurtle headlong out of Eden and try to find redemption in a world where love is a four-letter word and even God gets lonely sometimes. As icomics.com's Greg McElhatton says: “If you like dark and cynical humor, you should … no, need, to be reading Hey, Mister.” What? Still not convinced? You're a tough crowd. Here's more from my favorite reviewer Artbomb!

HEY, MISTER (Vol 2): Celebrity Roast
$9.95 Buy from Top Shelf Comix“Sickman-Garner’s best work shows a complexity of vision and cartooning talent that make him eminently watchable; qualities which belie the seeming hopelessness of his work. Like Shannon Wheeler, he manages to wrench some telling humor from a seemingly inauspicious vehicle.” — The Comics Journal
This trade paperback collects the first four issues of my series, HEY, MISTER, topped off with three new stories and a few anthology pieces. Follow the adventures of Young Tim, Mister, Aunt Mary, and Hideous Mutants (don't ask!), as they continue their guerrilla war against everything sacred and beautiful. Best of all, there aren't any actual celebrities. Well, except for Sting, but he gets killed off rather quickly. Don't trust me? Read this review at Artbomb!
