“Everybody Is Stupid Except for Me is as combative, iconoclastic, and embittered as its title suggests it would be. It is also smart, thought-provoking, and funny as hell. Disconcertingly, you’ll agree with at least half of what Bagge says. Then, gratifyingly, you’ll realize that everybody is stupid except for you, too.” — Esquire
“Like all good political cartoonists, Bagge can be cruel. But he’s also willing to skewer himself when he deserves it… as libertarian polemicists go, he’s a lot more fun than, say, Ayn Rand.” — The Washington Post
“Bagge has been doing really interesting work, mixing field journalism with humor and opinion in an entirely novel way. As an essayist Bagge is never preachy, and he often points out the shortcomings of his fellow libertarians (his account of meeting Ron Paul is particularly funny). He explores more than he rants, and when he does let loose, he’s got a healthy sense of self-satire. These comics will piss you off, and that’s good.” — Boing Boing
“This collection of satirical rants… is philosophically more about punk individualism than Ayn Rand, and artistically the heir to 1980s indie comics. Indeed, Bagge is an indie star, famous for his wonderfully elastic cartooning style and punk-inflected comedies.” — The Observer
“[This book] finds Bagge as sharp and irate as ever, and still possessed of a great sense of humor, especially about himself — even the title reveals an element of self-mockery among all the self-righteousness.” — The A.V. Club
