'Deceptively intelligent and exceptionally moreish.' Charlie Brooker | `With his beautiful illustrations and incisive words, Greene is one of the most important cartoonists working today.' David Squires, Guardian cartoonist | `For years in the pages of Private Eye `Scene & Heard' has combined to telling effect a journalist's news sense and ear for a quote with an artist's eye for the human condition, once a fortnight, for less than the price of a bog-standard pint in a characterless booze-barn.' Barney Farmer | `Yeah. What he said.' Lee Healey. Viz, The Drunken Bakers | `Unusually for modern journalism, Scene & Heard leaves the reader with more questions than fourth-hand conjecture masquerading as insight. As brutally honest as one might hope. Brilliant.' Rufus Hound | `Fantastic.' Chris Riddell

`Deceptively intelligent and exceptionally moreish, reading 'Scene and Heard' soon becomes as addictive as shelling and eating pistachio nuts.' Charlie Brooker
