Percy Crosby (w &
a & c)
Debuting in 1923 in Life magazine, Skippy moved to the
comics pages in 1925 and soon became a sensation, published in 28 countries and
14 languages. In 1931, Skippy became the first comic strip to see its film
version win an Academy Award. Crosby continued writing and drawing the feature
until 1945.
Perhaps more than any other cartoonist before him, Crosby
brought philosophy and politics to the American newspaper comic strip,
ultimately leading to his exile from comics and his forced incarceration in a
mental institution for the last sixteen years of his life. As a result of his
tragic end, Crosby’s remarkable contributions to American culture have been
largely eclipsed, until now.
Co-edited by Jared Gardner and Dean Mullaney, and
designed by Lorraine Turner, the premiere volume contains the daily comics from
1925 through 1927 and is illustrated with many photographs and rare artwork
from the collection of the cartoonist's daughter, Joan Crosby Tibbetts, and
Skippy, Inc.
HC • PC • $49.99 • 304 pages • 9.5” x 8.5” • ISBN
978-1-61377-284-3
Bullet points:
• “There
is not a cartoonist in the country that does not owe [Crosby] a debt of
gratitude." –Milton Caniff
• Skippy
can be seen as the spiritual ancestor to Peanuts and Calvin and Hobbes, among
many other kid strips. Crosby influenced cartoonists from Charles Schulz to
Walt Kelly and Garry Trudeau.
Fred Dickenson (w)
• John Prentice (a & c)
The fifth volume of the Harvey Award-nominated Rip Kirby
features the incredible art of John Prentice, who picked up the pen and ink
duties after Alex Raymond's death and continued drawing the strip for decades.
Prentice received three Reuben Awards for the series, in 1966, 1967, and 1986.
Fred Dickenson, who had been writing the strip with Raymond, keeps the
continuity going for Prentice's exquisite art. Volume Five contains more than
800 comics, every one from October 22, 1956 to June 6, 1959. Edited by Dean
Mullaney. Introduction by Brian Walker.
