The Far Side Gallery 2 is a collection of The
Far Side comic strips. This book includes cartoons from Bride
of The
Far Side, Valley of The Far Side, and It
Came From The Far Side. A great two-page forward appears at the
beginning of the book written by Stephen King. All of the daily cartoons appear in black and
white. Some of the comics have
been enlarged to take up and entire page while there are mostly four or
three (one Sunday) comics on a page.
The Far Side became very popular in the
early 1980's, and continued into the 1990's, until Gary Larson decided
that he was going to retire the comic strip. It was seen daily in
hundred of newspapers and enjoyed by millions. The Far Side is just as
the name imply...just on the far side of sane. Most of the strips
feature humans, but not all. If an animal is the main character, then
they are usually placed in the shoes of a human. Most of the Far Side
strips deal with the stupid things humans do in every day things. Other
strips deals with things that are just totally wacky. Either way, they
make fun of us and everything we do. And since it is human nature to
laugh at the misfortune of others...you will probably find this comic
strip to be very funny.
