Newspaper comics are not only funny, they also reflect their times. In this collection, Brian Walker has amassed more than a half-century of strips, including rare examples provided by the artists themselves. Featured cartoonists include Walk Kelly ("Pogo"), Charles Schulz ("Peanuts"), Garry Trudeau ("Doonesbury"), Bill Watterson ("Calvin and Hobbes"), Scott Adams ("Dilbert") and Patrick McDonnel ("Mutts"), along with many more. Organized by decade, with biographical profiles and desciptions of different genres and themes, "The Comics" forms a graphic survey of American culture since 1945.
