"What Do We Have for the Witnesses, Johnnie?" (A Doonesbury Book)

G. B. Trudeau’s Doonesbury collection What Do We Have for the Witnesses, Johnnie? (1975–present, Holt, Rinehart and Winston) gathers the early, sharp-edged installments of his landmark newspaper strip, which followed a sprawling cast through the social and political upheavals of the 1970s. Spanning just two issues, this series captures Trudeau’s signature blend of satire and character-driven humor, establishing the acerbic wit that made Doonesbury a cultural touchstone. It matters as a compact, formative snapshot of a comic that would go on to define political cartooning for decades.
