More cartoons than memories

3 stars

I enjoyed the anecdotes of Martin's movie career, but I was expecting/hoping for much more of that in the course of the book. It is a delightful read, but just be aware that 60-70% of the book are single-panel cartoons that Bliss and Martin have collaborated on. The memoir section, while interesting, occupies a smaller portion of the book. Still a great read, but I would have preferred more about his time in movies.
