Family Circus: I'm Taking a Nap!

Bil Keane's long-running newspaper strip The Family Circus gets the comic book treatment in this four-issue series from Gold Medal Books, spanning 1974 to 1984. Each issue collects classic dailies and Sundays, centering on the gentle, slice-of-life humor of the Keane household—here with a particular focus on the timeless childhood ritual of avoiding chores by feigning sleep. The series showcases Keane's signature warm, round-line art and his knack for capturing the small, relatable moments of family life. It's a charming, compact archive of one of America's most beloved comic strips, preserving its cozy, nostalgic tone for a new generation of readers.
