From its high culture influence on Pop Art to its low culture appeal to children of all ages, the comic strip has had a lasting hold on the imaginations of generations. Noted writer Donald Phelps provides essays on popular classics, such as Chester Gould's Dick Tracy, E.C. Segar's Thimble Theatre (which produced Popeye), and Frank King's Gasoline Alley. His keen eye discerns the sublime qualities of this most American art form with wit and refreshing candor. Reading the Funnies offers an elegant and eloquent look into this fascinating slice of American popular culture.

reviewed Reading the Funnies: Looking at Great Cartoonists on February 03, 2013 Reading the Funnies: Looking at Great Cartoonists
Essays about golden age newspaper comics written in a delightful, and often opaque style. These essays challenge conventions of academic writing just as the comic strips they describe challenged art and literature in a struggle that squashed the comics medium in America to this day. High writing about low-art.
