    Dilbert A Treasury of Sunday Strips: Version 00 TPB (2000 Andrews McMeel) 1-1ST

    1st printing.

    Story and art by Scott Adams.

    The 16th Dilbert Book.

    Everyone whos in business, works for a business, or even just gives others the business is amazed: Scott Adams never lacks for yet another way to lampoon the corporate world. Its not that Adams is anti-business. He's more anti-bad boss than anything. But poor management practices, the effects of bad decisions, and what it all means for the average worker add up to more comedic material than even the man who created Dilbert can tame.

    Since Dilbert was first syndicated in 1989, Adams has built a following that would be the envy of any corporate sales and marketing team. His work not only generates howls from readers as they rush to plaster it on lunch-room refrigerators and scan it into interoffice e-mails, it has those same fans reading about their workplaces every Sunday in a multiple-panel, color format. And thats what this treasury, The Collected Dilbert Sundays, provides. This collection offers yet another glimpse into the zany life of Dilbert, Dogbert, Ratbert, and the rest of the crazy cube crew through the masterpiece Sunday comics. Heres even more of the great Adamss irony, sarcasm, and satire that so many have come to depend upon to cope with the corporate workplace. The Collected Dilbert Sundays humorously continues the tradition of poking fun at the world of business from which we all seek to temporarily escape.

    Alice Obiefune was at her lowest ebb when the eleventh Doctor burst into her life; she'd lost her mother, her job and her apartment. But it didn't take much of the Doctor's compassion to get her on board the TARDIS, rediscovering the beauty in life, one time-lost adventure at a time! But there's a storm gathering, just out of view, one that threatens to offer both the Doctor and Alice their deepest, fondest wishes. Just hope they don't accept!

    Gross Exaggerations HC (2020 IDW) The Meshuga Comic Strips of Milt Gross 1-1ST

    1st printing.

    Story and art by Milt Gross.

    Presenting a comprehensive collection of the major comic strips from Milt Gross; Nize Baby, Count Screwloose, and Dave's Delicatessen, along with other comic strips and offerings from books and magazines.

    The king of screwball comic strips, Milt Gross, had a varied career in movies and animation, humorous poetry and illustrated novels, and most prolifically, comic strips. Beginning in the 1920s, his comics were born of the Yiddish humor in vaudeville and expanded to lampooning all the foibles and fallacies of American life. Filled with bizarre characters and frenzied, slapstick action, Gross's newspaper comics entertained readers for decades.

    Most of the classics seen here have never been reprinted before!

    Hardcover, 13-in. x 17-in., 144 pages, full color.
