{"product_id":"dickie-does-america-9781963511123","title":"Dickie Does America","description":"\u003cstrong\u003eAn \"R\" rated absurdist comic strip for the 12 year old boy hidden in all of us, Dickie critiques western cultural pillars in an age of political and social tribalism.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eImagine Charlie Brown dropping out of highschool, moving to Belgium, and developing a bit of a drinking problem. Meet Dickie, a Belgian yokel with good intentions but dubious critical thinking skills, navigating a modern world with inadequate emotional intelligence. Like the football yanked out from under Charlie, he always ends up on the wrong side of every situation.\u003cbr\u003eThis satirical cartoon skewers modern society, shining an uncomfortable light into the dark recesses of our civilization, where our individual, well-meaning choices conflict with our culture's values and morals. It's the dark humor of \u003cem\u003eThe Far Side\u003c\/em\u003e and the social\/political satire of \u003cem\u003eThe Simpsons\u003c\/em\u003e, a sophisticated humor wrapped in disarmingly simple illustrations with unending tragic consequences for our favorite antihero. Dickie will cause you to laugh out loud while simultaneously blushing - hoping no one will ask you to explain what is so funny.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Flare Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/05\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781963511123\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 172","brand":"Pieter de Poortere","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51334081020085,"sku":"9781963511123","price":21.21,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/files\/img_67389736-96a9-4042-bad6-2cf93c6577e2.jpg?v=1752583591","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/dickie-does-america-9781963511123","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
