PEARLS BEFORE SWINE PEARLS FALL FAST: A Pearls Before Swine Treasury: 21 - Softcover

"...a sampling of his funniest work." (Allen Pierleoni, Sacramento Bee) "...contains...witty and crisp commentary to reader remarks about specific strips." (Harry Moskos, The Sunday Journal) "In the years since it debuted in 2001, "Pearls Before Swine" has developed the kind of strong, cross-generational appeal shared by few strips since "Peanuts." (David Timberline, Style Weekly) "An ark of doodles and scribbles used as a delivery device for the trenchant and the ludicrous, Pearls Before Swine is one of the few comics worth reading in the funny pages these days." (LA Weekly)

In this treasury collection ofUnsportsmanlike Conductand Rat's Wars, the eclectic Pearls Before Swinecast play out their respective roles. Rat is the arrogant know-it-all, taking constant advantage of the naive and simple Pig, with wise and pedantic Goat looking on in detached disapproval. The incredibly inept Crocs still hold hopes of eating their Zeeba neighbours. Throw in cameo appearances by Guard Duck and Snuffles the Cat and you get the full tableau of Pearls comedy. Stephan's personal annotations lend insight and more humour to this Pearls Before Swinerendtion.
