"Hot Potatoe" is full of delightful details, quirky catchphrases and drawings that make the impossible seem normal, and even rational in this strange world of Marc Bell. If you enjoy taking your time to delve into idiosyncratic worlds full of visual puns, then this book is most definitely for you.
After having the book in my possession for just over a month, I have opened it here and there and returned to it over and over again. The result has been a body of work that has revealed itself over time. It's an immersive experience, really, and one that asks viewers to reconsider what they think they know in favor of something else that challenges perception itself.
An added bonus to the book are the essays, which are well-thought out and complement the entire monograph nicely.
