A deliriously honest illustrated graphic novel, Manic Manifesto is a surreal ride through madness, meaning, and Medicare. Meet Dan Joyce, a self-proclaimed atheist prophet and mentally ill artist navigating the bureaucratic labyrinth of modern America with wit, wild visions, and a relentless hunger for love, purpose, and validation. From shelter bathrooms to philosophical debates with pharmacists, encounters with Aubrey Plaza and Bernie Sanders, to plunging literal poop soup and surviving romantic calamities, Dan confronts the system and his own sanity with defiant humor and emotional rawness. Infused with stand-up-worthy rants, existential musings, and a soundtrack of original songs, this memoir-meets-manifesto is a heartfelt, hysterical ode to the overlooked, the outcast, and the outright unlikely.
