The inner workings of the comics world are revealed in this lavish, colorful, idiosyncratic, anecdotal compendium. Presented in alphabetical entry form, the book covers the history of newspaper strips and comic books from the 1930s to today. Entries include not only comics characters and creators, but companies, genres, collections, and such oddball topics as "Gorilla covers". You'll find R. Crumb side-by-side with crime comics, Li'l Abner brushing elbows with Little Annie Fanny, Tarzan nose-to-nose with the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. This book is a must-have item for anyone who has ever read a comic book and for those who fondly recall the glory days of the newspaper comics strip.
