Big Science

When cartoonist Nick Downes looks to Big Science for explanations, anything can happen. This first collection of his zany view of life in the laboratory - and beyond - takes everything to an extreme, from technology ("Aerobics is down the hall. This is Robotics.") to the atmosphere (with "threatening clouds" that spell out "you're doomed").
Downes' dark side allows him to see the agnostic mantis, the agoraphobic lost in the desert, and the toxic waste dump behind the much-photographed Lookout Point.
Downes' cartoons have appeared in a wide array of magazines, books, and newspapers both in the US and abroad and have been included in a number of humor anthologies.
