“I bought one of the original TOO MUCH COFFEE MAN mini-comics from Shannon himself back in Austin in 1990. Shannon and I go back that far, so it’s with great pride and joy that I point out that Shannon Wheeler is one of the alt-comix greats,” says BOOM! Studios Founder and Chief Executive Officer Ross Richie. “I've avidly followed his continued posting of TOO MUCH COFFEE MAN online and couldn't help but want to bring it all to print.”
“This character has been vital and relevant for 20 years and continues to be one of the gold standards in comic book humor!,” says BOOM! Studios Editor-in-Chief Matt Gagnon. “Too Much Coffee Man is an icon in the indie world and we have a chance to continue the legacy. Shannon’s long-underwear hero has displayed decades-long staying power. This beautiful graphic novel collects great new stories any fan, or TOO MUCH COFFEE MAN beginner will adore.”
TOO MUCH COFFEE MAN: CUTIE ISLAND tells the story of a cynical anxiety-riddled superhuman who waxes long on everything from politics to the state of the world to people along with other featured non-Coffee Man tales in Wheeler's world.
