Mutts is known for its straightforward artwork, its positive messages, and of course, the antics of its charming furry protagonists, Earl the dog and Mooch the cat.

Monday through Saturday, readers of every generation have wide-ranging reason why they love Mutts. But Sunday is a special visual adventure. The logo panel is almost a strip unto itself, often paying homage to cartooning of yesteryear, with Mooch and Earl in a comic book cover tribute or parodying a strip from decades gone by. Some readers may have never seen the logo panel, since they are sometimes dropped for space. Those cheated reader, as well as those that have come to love Mutts' special Sunday full-color strips, will cherish this vibrant collection.
