Sometimes, long after the fact, pop-culture ephemera (I coined a term for stuff like this - ephemorabilia) can prove fascinating in its own right. Will this? Who knows? Maybe I'll glance at it if it sits on the shelf long enough.

Eesh...I don't even think this would've been funny in the 80s...

Just another forgotten 1980 household name pop icon.

A fun, quick read

Would this book hold up today? Probably not. But my 11 year-old self adored, adored Max Headroom when this book was published and I read it over and over again. I even did a book report on it, probably much to the confusion of my grade 7 teacher. So for that childhood happiness and as a time capsule piece, it gets 5 stars from me. :)
