Publisher Comments:

THE DOG IS NOT A TOY (ISBN: 0-7407-1392-2) over 147,800 copies net FUZZY LOGIC (ISBN: 0-7407-2198-4) over 106,900 copies net GROOVITUDE (ISBN: 0-7407-2894-6) over 120,000 copies net THE GET FUZZY EXPERIENCE (ISBN: over 69,200 copies net I WOULD HAVE BOUGHT YOU A CAT, BUT...(ISBN: 0-7407-3495-4) over 32,200 copies net The second full-color Get Fuzzy treasury, BUCKY KATT'S BIG BOOK OF FUN, delivers even more hilarious antics of the trio: Bucky, Satchel, and Rob. The bitingly funny comic strip from cartoonist Darby Conley is a wry portrait of single life with pets. Together, this unlikely trio endures all the trials and tribulations of a typical family ... more or less. Get Fuzzy is syndicated by United Feature Syndicate and appears in more than 400 newspapers. Get Fuzzy was recently named the Best Comic Strip of 2002 by the National Cartoonists Society

Review:

"Voted the Best Comic Strip of 2002 by the National Cartoonists Society, Conley's Get Fuzzy friends are no Garfield and Odie. Wacky, hilarious and charming, this second compilation of Conley's characters (following on the heels of Sept. 2002's Groovitude: A Get Fuzzy Treasury) touches on the intricacies of inter-species affairs in a New York City apartment. Human Rob Wilco, impudent feline Bucky Katt and soft-hearted mutt (but don't call him that to his face) Satchel Pooch form a lovable trio whose differing personalities make for great comedy. Whether the storyline features Satchel's sweet innocence and ignorance of the world around him, Bucky's schemes and wise-ass, sarcastic remarks, or Rob's (or Pinky, as Bucky likes to call him) flip acceptance of his pets' polar opposite personalities, Conley's comic strip strikes home with its candid, funny and heart-warming portrayal of three very different dispositions co-existing under one roof." Publishers Weekly (Copyright Reed Business Information, Inc.)

Synopsis:

The bitingly funny comic strip from cartoonist Darby Conley is a wry portrait of single life with pets. Together, the unlikely trio endures all the trials and tribulations of a typical family . . . . more or less.

Synopsis:

Get Fuzzy collections are flying off the shelves: More than 500,000 copies have been sold to date. And Bucky Katt's Big Book of Fun, the second full-color treasury of the outrageous antics featuring Bucky, Satchel, and Rob, is sure to attract more readers of the strip voted Best Comic Strip of 2002 by the National Cartoonists Society.Behold the world of Get Fuzzy. Meet Bucky Katt, the Siamese smart-ass who coexists under protest with Satchel Pooch, the sweet-tempered shar-pei/Lab mix, and Rob Wilco, the human who keeps the refrigerator stocked. Each day in 400 newspapers around the world readers visit the place where cats, dogs, and humans meet and learn a little bit more about each other-not necessarily by choice. By turns hilarious, poignant, and even human, Get Fuzzy is the smartest, funniest comic strip in newspapers today.
