This semi-autobiographical, hyper-intellectual, high-concept comic appeals to both inside and outside the comic book world. Even Henry Rollins says TMCM is "the only comic I would really pay attention to, because I like the idea. 'Too Much Coffee Man' has a lot to say. He's a great apocalyptic philosopher for our very troubled times." Holy crap. That's Henry Rollins. The TMCM Omnibus, at over 500 pages, was a pain in the ass to put together. It was solicited and canceled multiple times- becoming one of the most anticipated books around. Many editors were fired and a few of them went insane. Wheeler said, "I stopped going to conventions and slept in my closet because too many people asked me about theTMCM Omnibus." Wheeler is once again making public appearances. The book is real, it is in stores, weighs as much as a small child, and it's getting attention.
