The Complete Far Side - $100 Delivered @ Unleash Store

250

A masterpiece of comic brilliance, The Complete Far Side contains every Far Side cartoon ever syndicated—over 4,000 if you must know—presented in (more or less) chronological order by year of publication, with more than 1,100 that had never before appeared in a book. Also included are additional Far Side cartoons Larson created after his retirement: 13 that appeared in the last Far Side book, Last Chapter and Worse, and six cartoons that periodically ran as a special feature in the New York Times Science Times section as The Far Side® of Science. Creator Gary Larson offers a rare glimpse into the mind of The Far Side® in quirky and thoughtful introductions to each of the 14 chapters. Complaint letters, fan letters, and queries from puzzled readers appear alongside some of the more provocative or elusive panels. Actor, author, and comedian Steve Martin offers his sagacious thoughts in a foreword, and Larson’s former editor describes what it was like to be “the guy who could explain every Far Side cartoon.”

    • Hi supasaiyan,

      Unfortunately, we do not have any current Calvin and Hobbes titles in stock at the moment.

      We will let you know when the new stock arrives.

      Kind regards,

    Gave this to my wife as her b'day present about a month ago (big Larson fan). She's been reading it every night and is only on the second book. She loves it.

    I personally wish the pictures were a bit bigger, as they're not the same size as the ones you'd get in the regular books. Seems like a lot wasted space.

    • Yep! Saw this in a store and almost pulled the trigger on the hardback version (double the price, but I really love Larson). Had a look inside and the pictures are stupidly small. Looks like they cheaped out on the printing- most of the page is white!

    Read the reviews online, don't buy this.

    As mentioned above the pictures are far smaller than they need to be. Frustratingly so.

    Whilst not as pretty as a box set, I highly recommend the "The Gallery" versions of The Far Side. Bigger flip books that are much better to appreciate the artwork that is such a big part of the joke itself.

  • i prefer the calendar versions… it's not as small as the book ones.

  • There's lots of FarSide on Facebook … very enjoyable !!!
