Step Aside Pops – Kate Beaton

Step Aside Pops – Kate Beaton – (160 pages, English, hardcover, published by Drawn & Quarterly) 

Step Aside Pops

'Step Aside Pops' is a collection of cartoons by historian and comic artist Kate Beaton. With dry humor, Beaton pokes fun at historical events from a modern and feminist perspective. In addition to historical figures, she also makes forays into characters from classic English literature, film, pop culture, and comics.

“Somewhere in my heart is a folder titled Things I Did Not Know I Wanted and it is full of Kate Beaton comics… Sharp, charming, and weird, Step Aside, Pops is a fine sampling of Beaton’s work, and I can’t recommend it enough.” —NPR
