Product Information

Paralyzed in a car accident at the age of 21, underground cartoonist John Callahan parlays his injury into a darkly humorous comic strip that skewers the politically correct view of people with disabilities. Callahan brings his controversial style to the television screen with the animated series QUADS!, which centers around the adventures of sex-crazed, alcoholic quadriplegic Reilly O'Reilly. Crippled after being run over by a speeding millionaire, Reilly's settlement earns him a mansion which he uses as a home base for his personal circle of handicapped ne'er-do-wells: his hippie girlfriend Franny, gay physical therapist Spalding, drunk bartender Griz, blind musician Fontaine, hook-armed masseuse Lefty, and disembodied head Blazer. Together, the morally challenged, self-proclaimed "Magnificent Severed" engage in outrageous get-rich schemes involving everything from the Special Olympics to omelet sightings of the Virgin Mary. Twisted, hilarious, and utterly unique, the animated series is introduced in this first volume of episodes: "Maimed Manor," "Bad Manors," "1-800-GIMP," and "The Fraud Quad."
