I'm a recent convert to Mutts. I latched on thanks to Stephan Pastis and Pearls Before Swine.
It's good news / bad news.
The bad news: I missed all those years reading Mutts when it was new. The good news: I have this wonderful backlog to wander through.
Okay, McDonnell is an animal lover, and sometimes steers into animal-rights territory, a subject I tend to avoid. Still, he's not ham-handed, and plays it for light-hearted humor.

Patrick McDonnell's "Mutts" is one of the best comics in the papers. Nothing could be finer then, than to have a book (or several) of the collected strips to peruse at one's leisure.

I hope that in the future, colored collections will be available.

All five publications by Patrick McDonnell are a joy to own, read and re-read! With the premature departure of Bill Watterson, Gary Larson and the retirement of the beloved Charles Schulz, Patrick McDonnell has filled the void with his wonderfully witty and wise panels both hilariously funny and yet reminding us of our responsiblity to those who cannot speak for themselves. His work is both satisfyingly current and yet contains the best essence of the earliest cartoons (Krazy Kat, etc.) I await the ... Read More
