Story and art by Doug Wright.

Last year's Doug Wright: Canada's Master Cartoonist introduced the world to Nipper, the mischievous little kid who starred in Doug Wright's ingenious and enduring comic strip.

Volume 2 - 1st printing. "1965-1966"

Story and art by Doug Wright.

Doug Wright's pantomime strip about the life of a suburban family moves into the mid-1960s and the pop culture of the time begins to seep in. Wright covers almost every bit of domestic mayhem that parents and their kids experience throughout the year.

There are strips about school, as seen through the eyes of mischievous kids: fear of bad report cards; figuring out how to play hooky without being caught; dreading being called on by the teacher.

Softcover, (Horizontal Format) 6-in. x 8-in., 112 pages, full color.

Cover price $16.95.

Volume 3 - 1st printing. "1967-1968!"

Story and art by Doug Wright.

Doug Wright's masterful newspaper strip returns to suburban life in the late 1960s, where not even the countercultural tumult of the times could ruin domestic bliss or distract from sibling rivalry. Things are still fun, innocent, and wholesome in the suburbs: there's road hockey in the streets, boys have their friends over for sleepovers, and kids play freely on their own outside, with little or no parental supervision.

Wright's stellar draftsmanship, fond eye for detail, and brilliant sense of comic timing shines throughout this volume of the Nipper series.

Softcover, (Horizontal Format) 6-in. x 8-in., 112 pages, full color.
