(W/A/CA) John Kerschbaum
John Kerschbaum’s Petey and Pussy return, and so d-s their unique brand of animal neuroses. Imagine a Secret Life of Pets where the animals hang out in dive bars. Petey is a compulsive dog that values his unchecked freedom and Pussy is a self-absorbed cat with a gambling problem. Their darkly hilarious stories all intertwine at an oddly surreal breakneck pace, making Kerschbaum’s tales of balding domestic animals read as if Larry David wrote an R-rated Tom and Jerry for Adult Swim.
