UNGER, Jim : Herman Classics T1 ECW PRESS 9781550226164

Welcome, Herman! Beautifully presented in color, here are over 400 classic *Herman* cartoons. Most are single-panel gags, but there are also many full-page weekend strips. In addition to the cartoons, we’ve included entertaining, brief biographical comments from Unger himself—on his life, how he conceives his cartoons, and the illustration process. Printed on high-quality paper with meticulous attention to accurate reproduction, this book is truly a classic for every *Herman* fan. Jim Unger’s thoughts on *Herman*: "I think what happened with this *Herman* thing is so stupid it makes you laugh. Herman is nobody, nothing. He’s just a prop for my way of expressing life. I tell people, 'Hey, you dummy, this is what you look like.' It’s not sophisticated—I draw a TV set crashing through a wall, and behind it, a guy shouting, 'Missed!' That’s not a gag. That’s life. I’m reaching the great unwashed, right? The lowest common denominator. I understand my own kind."
