Krazy Kat is a love story, focusing on the relationships of its three main characters, Krazy Kat, Ignatz Mouse and Offisa Pup. This volume, the third in the series, is packed full of nearly two years of the revolutionary strip. Exquisitely designed by Jimmy Corrigan author, Chris Ware, this volume features never-before-published strips from 1909; a sports page featuring the French boxer, Georges Carpentier; two extremely frank daily strip revelations about the Krazy's dubious gender; several gag cartoons; and an introduction by Krazy specialist, Bill Blackbeard.

"Herriman played as well with verbal poetry as he did with the visual. Puns, alliteration and copious phonetic wordplay fill the balloons and boxes."
George Herriman (1880-1944), the creator of Krazy Kat, was born in New Orleans and lived most of his life in Los Angeles, California. He is considered by many to be the greatest strip cartoonist of all time.

Softcover. Condition: Good. The fourth volume of chronological reprintings of the classic newspaper strip Krazy Kat portrays the deceptively simple triangle hat sustatained if for more than 30 years. Sexually indeterminate Krazy waits lovingly to be beaned by bricks-- invariably interpreted as tokens of affection--lobbed by caustic Ignatz Mouse; meanwhile, Offissa Pupp attempts , usually vainly to thwart Ignatz, in part to uphold the forces of order and in part out of unrequited love for the Kat.Herriman's brilliant graphics and imaginative designs , and the poetry in the characters' fanciful, fractured dialogue, add up to something still unmatched in comics-- or any other medium. These Sunday episodes from 1931-1932 appear in their original black in white.This one includes an informative essay on Herriman's pre-Krazy career and samples the '31-32 daily strips. Three quarters of a century after their creation, these incomparable comics retain their ineffable appeal, especially in this beautiful showcase volume. Seller Inventory # SONG1560975946
