Krazy and Ignatz: 1941-1942 - A Ragout of Raspberries

Sobre el libro Krazy and Ignatz: 1941-1942 - A Ragout of Raspberries de George Herriman publicado por Fantagraphics al 2007:

George Herriman integrated full, spectacular color into Krazy Kat in June, 1935. The gorgeous evolution continues in our fourth color volume, which includes the Sunday strips from all of 1941 and 1942. The color format opens the floodgates for a massive amount of spectacular, rare color art from series editor Bill Blackbeard and designer Chris Ware´s files. Most of these strips in this volume have not seen print since originally running in Hearst newspapers over 60 years ago.

For this volume, critic Jeet Heer contributes an essay about the history and precedents of Herriman´s unique use of language, exploring his characters´ loquacious lexicography.
