About the series
Sheldon Mayer's beloved, all-ages humor strip gets a deluxe hardcover treatment in The Sugar and Spike Archives (DC, 2011–present). This inaugural volume collects the earliest adventures of the precocious toddler duo who communicate in their own private baby talk, a charming and inventive series that defined a lighter, character-driven corner of the Silver Age. Mayer, the strip's sole writer and artist, brought a gentle, keenly observed whimsy to their neighborhood misadventures. For fans of classic, creator-owned DC whimsy, this archive is an essential look at a unique and fondly remembered series.
