Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

Tony Millionaire's comic strip Maakies is one of the most popular weekly comic strips in America, running in ten of the largest U.S. weekly newspapers, including the L.A. New Times and Seattle Stranger. This first collection, designed by Chip Kidd and Millionaire, reprints every strip from its 1994 inception through early 2000. Maakies features the nautical adventures of an alcoholic crow and suicidal ape, and includes an introduction by Andy Dick.

Review:

What separates this alternative comic strip...is Millionaire's insanely detailed artwork and his unrivaled f--ked-upedness. (Alive, 5 December 2002, J. Caleb Mozzocco)

Review:

Nobody alive draws better sailing ships, sea battles, woolly mammoths, runaway brains, or Pasteurella Pestis than Tony Millionaire. (Hermenaut)

Review:

There's a darkness to his work, yet everything is treated with this gung-ho adventurous spirit, which is funny in itself. (Bob Odenkirk)

Review:

Alternates between an almost sincere romanticism and a wholly unpredictable cartoonism...a must-read for comics fans. (Publishers Weekly)

Review:

America's best newspaper strip. Eerily hilarious. (Alternative Press)

Review:

[A] beautifully designed new collection. (The Stranger, Bret Fetzer, 19 October 2000)

Review:

A must-read for comics fans. (Publishers Weekly)

Review:

The off-color ministrip along the bottom is often a riot. (Seattle Times, Mark Rainer, 10 October 2000)
