Books like Red Meat: A Collection of Red Meat Cartoons From the Secret Files of Max Cannon

My first introduction to Red Meat was through Mer, and at the time it was brilliant - absurd, offensive, over-the top in terms of violence, sexual content, and language, this book made me hurt myself laughing. Which is why I find it sort of sad every time I pick up an issue of the Onion and, without fail, don't laugh at the newest Red Meat. I don't know if its because Cannon has lost his touch; is stuck in a rut (there's only so many time the evil milkman threatening to dismember the little girl can draw a chuckle); or if the humour was always based on the pure shock value of the material, so your first exposure will to Red Meat will always be the best, as the more you read the less it shocks you. Perhaps Read Meat is the Dead Milkmen of the comic world.
