Tales Designed to Thrizzle by Michael Kupperman

Cartoonist Michael Kupperman trade 'Tales Designed to Thrizzle' collects the first 4 issues of his comic in hardcover. It seems like you've seen these characters in old engravings and reminiscent of work by others, but of course not exactly. Stories are great and weird. I've been getting into the stories of Albert Einstein and Mark Twain's woman-chasing, crime-busting superhero stories in issue 5. Retro-future robots are also a recurring theme.

Anyway, check this page out from the latest issue. It's not in the book - look for Volume 2 next year - but it's in the same ballpark.
