Talkin' About My G-g-generation (A Doonesbury Book) #[nn]

Jan 1988 · Henry Holt and Co. · 5.95 USD

In this 1988 collection from G. B. Trudeau, the surreal and satirical world of Doonesbury takes a wild turn as Phil Slackmeyer faces off against the SEC, Boopsie channels ancient spirits with increasingly absurd results, and Ronald Reagan appears only as a disembodied TV persona dubbed Ron Headrest. With Trudeau both writing and drawing, and Don Carlton handling inks and letters, the comic blends political satire with absurdist humor, culminating in a much-hyped harmonic convergence that—surprise—doesn’t materialize. The cover, by Trudeau and Carlton, captures the era’s chaotic energy in full.

Phil Slackmeyer gets in trouble with the SEC; Boopsie reminisces about her past lives; Ronald Reagan appears repeatedly, solely on tv as Ron Headrest; Roland Hedley holds a lecture on his travels through Reagan’s brain; Boopsie acts repeatedly as a medium for ancient warrior Hunk-Ra; the eagerly anticipated harmonic convergence does NOT happen.
