Krazy Kat #[nn]

George Herriman's beloved strip gets a paperback collection, announced right on the cover as "a classic from the Golden Age of the Comics" — and the artwork makes a strong case for that claim. Against a vivid red desert backdrop, the blue-striped Krazy Kat reels from a flying brick while a small figure scrambles away across the sandy flats, the whole scene rendered in Herriman's wonderfully loose, expressive line work. With an introduction by e. e. cummings adding literary credibility, this 1977 Grosset and Dunlap edition is a genuinely inviting way to spend time with one of comics' most endearing characters.
