Marra On Dowd

In search of a modern book that captures the true spirit of the underground comic movement? Fan of original well crafted insanity? Into weird stuff? Well look no further!

Benjamin Marra’s The Incredibly Fantastic Adventures of Maureen Dowd a Work of Satire and Fiction (or B.M.I.F.A.M.D.W.S.F. as we like to call it around the shop… obviously that was joke) has finally hit the shelves at FP.


Maureen Dowd, the famous and popular political opinion columnist, is about to write her most powerful and influential column ever!! She’s come in possession of information that could topple the American government, destroy the White House and bring the Free World to its knees. Joined by the shadowy black-ops rogue agent, Shadow Wolf, can she fend off the assaults of fanatical White House officials and Hezzbollah commandos in time to write and deliver her column before deadline and still be on time for her third date with George Clooney? What’s a girl to do?

We have been forcefully pushing Benjamin Marra’s books on unsuspecting customers since the first issue of Night Business, and Benjamin Marra’s The Incredibly Fantastic Adventures of Maureen Dowd a Work of Satire and Fiction will be no exception!

Ok one more time for good measure… Benjamin Marra’s The Incredibly Fantastic Adventures of Maureen Dowd a Work of Satire and Fiction, man that is a mouthful… don’t go there.
