Domestic hijinks ensue in the classic comic strip that appeared in over 600 papers worldwide, including The Washington Post, Miami Herald, and others.
Ferociously Close to Home delivers McPherson's trademark take on the absurdities of everyday life. To say that his solutions to these perplexing situations are "out there" is an understatement. Consider Gina, who decides a branding iron will be the ideal memory aid for her birthday date-challenged husband. And poor Lanny, whose treadmill session is interrupted when he inadvertently triggers the health club's offensive odor alarm.
McPherson has long walked the line between grotesque and goofy. But somehow, his figures with big noses and bulging eyes connect with readers with a surefire magnetic precision. Whether it's healthcare or parenting, dating or car repairs, Close to Home delivers McPherson's warped world without fail.
