This will be the best thing that comes out of 2020!  Hope he keeps it up.  Still have a bunch of old Far Side books that I crack open from time to time.

Best cartoon series ever.

Gary Larson is Great! Loved reading the comics every day to see what his imagination would come up with!

HOWEVER...I'm a dyed-in-the wool Berkley Breathed fan! Loved every strip with Opus, Bill the Cat, and all the gang! I believe I have every strip published. I need to inventory and read them again.

Wonder if McKays is open yet? Think I will check. 

Edit...Yes, according to site. 10AM to 8PM, Adhering to Mask/Social  Distancing Protocols.

Slacker! lol 17 I think. Can't get to them all on my bookshelves. That's just what I can seen

Someday...I'll be featured on "Hoarders" Shelves everywhere, stacks here and there, and a wife who hasn't read a full book since her nursing school days.

She didn't know this about me the first few years...or things might have turned out differently.

I remember getting in trouble for laughing during chapel in high school because I was reading a far side book. Gary’s stuff is the best.

In honor of this news I just ordered The Complete Far Side in hardcover. I hope my kids will fall in love with the weirdness as much as I did.

Always loved these cartoons.  Glad to hear they are coming back.

Mine arrives tomorrow, however I opted for the paperback version.  While less classy, it seems a bit more manageable for perusing in the throne room.

That would be The Fart Side.

Your stocked up in case there is another run on TP. No Sears catalog slick pages for you.
