Ignatz award Nomination for Outstanding Collection
Leon Beyond—part John Hodgman, part out-of-date school textbook—is the know-it-all, relentless-fact-baking brain child of cartoonists Kevin Huizenga and Dan Zettwoch. Leon's knowledge was catalogued weekly in the
St. Louis Riverfront Times
.
Amazing Facts and Beyond
collects the comic-strip's best and most outrageous moments. Discover the world of optilusors, Robert Skur, dance notation and grooved disc jellyfish. Learn new words and concepts: winkaton or optogenerian. Mark your extreme calendar before you travel to the pancake and eggs nebula. Meticulously un-researched and full of dubious knowledge,
is the modern successor to
Ripley's Believe It Or Not
. Featuring guest contributions by Ted May, and others.
