EXPLAINERS: The Complete Village Voice Strips 1956-1966

Explainers is the first of four volumes collecting Jules Feiffer's entire run of over 2,000 strips, tackling just about every issue both public and private. In 1956, a relatively unknown cartoonist by the name of Jules Feiffer started contributing a strip to the only alternative weekly published in the US, a small radical newspaper called The Village Voice. It was the first time the American public had been subjected to a weekly dose of comics that so uncompromisingly and wittily confronted individuals' private fears and society's public transgressions. This edition contains approximately 500 strips originally published between 1956 and 1966 in a gigantic landscape hardcover format. Out of Print. Condition: Fine. Spine edge wear & corner tips are lightly rubbed.
