With The Incredible Change-Bots, 2007’s hilarious take on
transforming robots, Jeffrey Brown dispelled any notion that he was a one-trick pony. Funny
Misshapen Body serves as a memoir, detailing his growth as an
artist, struggle with Crohn’s disease and the release of his first
work, Clumsy. Brown deftly demonstrates his abilities as an
illustrator and storyteller and as always, delivers embarrassment,
humour and depth. For all those who have fallen asleep still drunk,
trying to figure out what you’re good at and wondering why the person
you’re sweet on hasn’t noticed you.
