About this Collection

This gift-line edition collects the complete run of the 1983 Hearts of Gold series from Abbeville Press, a satirical comic strip that follows the misadventures of a group of eccentric characters in a small town. The volume includes the full narrative arc, presented as a cohesive graphic novel with the subtitle 'The Great American Novel and Not a Word in It-No Music, Too,' reflecting the strip's deadpan humor and minimalist approach to storytelling.

"Hearts of Gold" is a standout 1983 tale from Milt Gross, who wrote, drew, and inked the entire story with his signature blend of whimsy and wit. When the Frontiersman and the Robber Baron form an unlikely fur-trading partnership, their alliance quickly unravels into betrayal, romance, and a relentless pursuit for revenge—culminating in a showdown that’s as unexpected as it is unforgettable, all set inside a barber shop. The cover by Milt Gross captures the story’s sharp humor and dramatic flair, making this a must-have for fans of classic, character-driven comics.
