    For Die-Hard Comic-Strip Fans
  

*by P***Y on Reviewed in the United States on September 26, 2015*

In the very first strip of the series SAM'S STRIP, there are three panels of arrows pointing toward the right and, in the final panel, we find the title character still being drawn by his artist, a cartoon version of Jerry Dumas. "Just a minute!" barks Sam. "I'm not ready yet!" This is a good indication of what's coming. Then, in the next day's installment, Sam is visited by Happy Hooligan, and...What's that? You've never heard of Happy Hooligan? How about Tillie the Toiler? Harold Teen? Krazy Kat and Ignatz Mouse? The Gumps? Well, that's probably why SAM'S STRIP had such a hard time when it originally ran, and why this Fantagraphics Books collection will always have a small readership: the humor was predicated on knowing who these classic comic-strip stars were.Originated by Dumas with frequent collaborator Mort Walker, the prolific creator of BEETLE BAILEY, SAM'S STRIP ran from October 1961 to June 1963. The conceit was that businessman Sam and his unnamed assistant owned and operated the comic strip in which they existed, and they were fully aware of their status as funny drawings. The creative team played around with the cartoon form's basic elements, having the protagonists talk to the readers, fight with their artist, shove sound effects and word balloons into the storage closet, try scheme after unsuccessful scheme to increase subscriptions, and welcome cameos by characters as famous as Blondie, Charlie Brown, and Mickey Mouse. Unfortunately, while this metahumor appealed to cartoonists and comics aficionados, it baffled the mainstream readers, and the unfunny (now terribly-dated) real-world political strips didn't help. Its circulation never reached more than about 60 newspapers, and SAM'S STRIP was cancelled after almost 510 installments.This collection includes the complete 20-month run of what's become a cult classic. There are short essays by the creators along with other special features that should appeal to the comic-strip fan, but the series itself is strictly suited to those familiar with the early strip characters. However, to them, I can highly recommended this volume.

    Great Book
  

*by H***Y on Reviewed in the United States on December 4, 2012*

If you enjoy reading about the background of comics and comics history, this is a rare book featuring compositions of old and new (for the sixties) comics characters in humorously unique situations.
