Simon Gärdenfors följer upp framgången med Simons 120 dagar med ännu en rolig och provocerande originalpocket. Nybuskis samlar hans vildsinta skämtteckningar, publicerade i Galago och andra tidningar eller i många fall nytecknade för boken. Gärdenfors skämtteckningar uppdaterar den gamla buskishumorn för 2000-talet med smarta, kontroversiella ämnesval hanterade på ett sanslöst korkat sätt och tecknade i ett drivet, klassiskt cartoon-manér. Resultatet är en samling skämtteckningar man kan älska eller hata, men alltid skratta åt. Och sedan skämmas en stund. Simon Gärdenfors är född 1978 och bosatt i Stockholm. Slackerskildringen Simons 120 dagar, om hans skandalomsusade resa genom Sverige, blev 2008 års mest uppmärksammade seriebok. Simon Gärdenfors är även känd som programledare i ZTV och rappare i gruppen Las Palmas.
