Pilgrim's Regress, edited by Joel Wells (Thomas More Press; 127 pages; $8.95), is a collection of cartoons both secular and otherwordly, selected from the pages of the liberal Catholic journal The Critic. Here a prim stewardess warns a passenger, "You can't read erotic books while we're in Irish air space," and two dour leprechauns, spotting a leprechaun bishop under a toadstool, observe. "So much for our carefree, puckish way of life." Funny fauna inhabit Animals, Animals, Animals, edited...
