In this, Pearls Before Swine treasury, you'll know you're not in Kansas anymore.
The Pearls Before Swine crew are at it again in their new book, Lions and Tigers and Crocs, Oh My! But even the wonderful Wizard of Oz couldn't help this bunch of merry misfits. Collecting strips from his last two books, Nighthogs and The Ratvolution Will Not Be Televised, cartoonist Stephan Pastis takes you on a magically malicious journey over the rainbow and into the rat trap of Lions and Tigers and Crocs, Oh My! As in the previous Pearls treasury collection, Sgt. Piggy's Lonely Hearts Club Comic, the comic strips are annotated, as only the smart-alecky, misanthropic-but-lovable Pastis can do. Following his yellow brick road of notes, readers gain great insights into the making of such classic Pearls bits as Rat's stint as a New York Times reporter, Angry Bob, Pig's plastic surgery, the Mallet o' Understanding, Mrs. Bootyworth, and the fraternal order of the Zeeba Zeeba Eetas.
A special bonus feature included in Lions and Tigers and Crocs is "The Good, the Banned, and the Ugly," a section of never-before-published and unedited Pearls strips.
So go, as fast as lightning, to the Emerald City-or the cash register-and buy this book, before a twister drops a Box o' Stupid People on you!

Lions and Tigers and Crocs, Oh My!
Sometimes, the commentary of Stephan Pastis is funnier than his actual comics. That's not to downplay his strip, but he's self-deprecating and observant. The mania of Pearls Before Swine is written from being very appreciative of the cartoonist's life (instead of his previous decade-long gig as an insurance lawyer) and his ability to answer his own question of "Can you believe I get paid to do this?"
He's not culturally angelic, like Charles Schultz and Bill Watterson, but he represents more of a new perspective of the new crowd of cartoonists that try to displease groups of people instead of being available to every demographic. The guy just makes me laugh, whether its his own words or that of Pig, Rat, Zebra, Goat and the Crocodiles.
