101 Ways to Kill Your Boss Paperback – December 30, 2008
by Graham Roumieu (Author)
Deadly doodles of boss-i-cide from the twisted mind behind Bigfoot: I Not Dead
The author/illustrator of the hilarious Bigfoot: I Not Dead and Me Write Book comes out of the woods and charges straight into the corporate jungle. For any embittered employee who’s ever fantasized about executing the chief executive, Graham Roumieu takes the fantasy many steps further. Imagine how different work could be if you could: turn a World’s Greatest Boss card into an eye-piercing paper airplane of death, create a corporate catapult, a lethal laser pointer, or even a urinal conversion kit (don’t ask). This wickedly funny collection of black-and-white cartoons will induce uncontrollable laughter in every disgruntled underling and cranky cog who’s ever wanted their CEO DOA.

HAHAHAHAHAHA. Very funny, although the dark side of funny, clever sketches. I would expect no less from Graham, the man who showed all the ways of BIGFOOT. Again, HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.
Book of Murder Drawings

Format: Hardcover
101 Ways to Kill Your Boss is basically just a heap of graphic violent murder scenes of usually an adult male (but occasionally female) getting killed by unique and funny methods. All are black pen (no other colours are used in the illustrations) type outline sketches. Not all seem to relate to the victim being the killer's boss either. Some are quite funny but the book lacks the higher standard achieved with his big foot autobiographies (ie In Me Own Words: The Autobiography of Bigfoot, Me Write Book: It Bigfoot Memoir and Bigfoot: I Not Dead) and his other books. With just illustrations and no words the humour of his other work just isn't achieved here.
