Krazy &amp; Ignatz 1933-1934 - "Necromancy by the Blue Bean Bush" is the fifth in a series reprinting George Herriman's early 20th Century comic strip masterpiece. Most of these strips have not seen print since originally running in Hearst newspapers over 70 years ago. Each volume is edited by the San Francisco Cartoon Art Museum's Bill Blackbeard. Krazy &amp; Ignatz 1933-1934 is a hot-baked brickbat of a volume, adance with nearly two full years of the Sunday Krazy Kat (Herriman did not use color until 1935), snug between multiple pages of Herriman extras, not the least of which include an introduction by Blackbeard, a new "DeBaffler" page, and a stunning layout front and back and throughout by the inimitable Chris Ware!

Fantagraphics Books

Sunday Krazy Kat strips from all of 1941 and 1942 and a bounty of extras, including an essay by Jeet Heer about the history and precedents of Herriman's unique use of language. George Herriman integrated full, spectacular color into Krazy Kat in June, 1935. The gorgeous evolution continues in Fantagraphics's fourth color volume (subtitled "A Ragout of Raspberries"), which includes the Sunday strips from all of 1941 and 1942. The color format opens the floodgates for a massive amount of spectacular, rare color art from series editor Bill Blackbeard and designer Chris Ware's files. Most of these strips in this volume have not seen print since originally running in Hearst newspapers over 60 years ago. For this volume, critic Jeet Heer contributes an essay about the history and precedents of Herriman's unique use of language, exploring his characters' loquacious lexicography.

Fantagraphics

Krazy and Ignatz 1943-1944 covers the last two years of Herriman's masterpiece. With this volume, Fantagraphics and its precursor Eclipse will have reprinted the entire 29-year run of the Krazy Kat Sundays! Like Charles Schulz, George Herriman was a cartoonist to the very end. Aside from collecting the last masterful year and a half of "Krazy Kat," this new volume will offer a retrospective look at Herriman's life at the drawing table, offering many never before seen samples of his original art (which the cartoonist often lovingly hand-colored for friends). Gathered from many scattered collections, these pages testify to Herriman's invererate passion for drawing. Rounding out the volume are scores of Krazy Kat daily strips also from Herriman's last years, further testament to the cartoonists vitality. Series editor and veteran comics historian, Bill Blackbeard, also provides a concluding, wide-ranging essay on the life and art of Herriman. More than a simple reprint collection, Krazy and Ignatz 1943-1944 portrays the full range of a cartoonist who remained an artist all his life.

George Herriman's Krazy & Ignatz in "Tiger Tea"

IDW Publishing

Never-before collected masterpieces from the creator of Krazy Kat.
George Herriman is legendary for his Krazy Kat series (whose Sunday strips Fantagraphics finished collecting last year), but not many people realize that even during Krazy’s 30-year-run, Herriman branched out and produced several other comic-strip features, any one of which would have landed him in the pantheon of all-time greats.
Stumble Inn, which ran daily for over three years (from 1922 to 1926), featured humans rather than animals and centered around the comedic occurrences in a hotel populated by one Uriah Stumble and his dysfunctional group of lodgers. (If you always wanted to see Herriman’s avant-la-lettre version of Fawlty Towers, this is what you've been waiting for.) Less dreamy and surreal than Krazy Kat’s desert-bound romantic triangle, Stumble Inn is a more robust, “classical” comic strip from the 1920s with wisecracks and pratfalls galore, all of course delineated with Herriman’s usual charm and elegance, and his slangy/poetic dialogue.
Reproduced from the best newspaper tear sheets available (from the legendary Bill Blackbeard San Francisco Academy of Comic Art), buttressed with fascinating historical essays and even-more-rare art, Stumble Inn is yet another Herriman masterpiece, and a crucial addition to any classic comic-strip fan’s library.

<li>The New York Journal of Books said that the first volume of LOAC Essentials (Baron Bean 1916) “sets the standard for archival and reprint quality.” The Washington Times wrote that it’s “beautiful. It showcases Mr. Herriman’s developing style and his move toward a combination of absurdity, surrealism, and art deco.”</li> <li>
LOAC Essentials Volume 6 presents the second year of George Herriman’s much-lauded pre-Krazy Kat masterpiece. These strips are nearly a century old and are reprinted here for the first time ever.</li>
