Humor In Print: Evolution Is Hard Work and The Gangs All Here!

One of my favorite contemporary comic strips is Sherman’s Lagoon by Jim Toomey.

Sherman is a shark, but a shark like no other.

Oh sure he eats  everything from fish to people but in his heart he’s a lovable and cuddly predator.

In Evolution Is Hard Work: The Twenty-Fifth Sherman's Lagoon Collection from Andrews McMeel Publishing, Sherman learns that evolution is not all its cracked up to be.

Some of his adventure includes a social media Flipper app, a mechanized Trash Wheel, a Time Machine, a shyster alligator, a garden gnome, a conscience, Orcas, sea pox and much, much more.

Trust me, you’ve never met anyone like Sherman or his aquatic friends.

Its underwater shenanigans offering plenty of laughs, twisted cliches, ‘sharp’ humor and even a few society pokes in the ribs.

Jaws has nothing on Sherman.

Growing up I was raised on Peanuts.  No, I’m not referring to the nut variety. I’m taking about the daily and Sunday comic strip adventures of Charlie Brown, Snoopy and the ‘Peanuts’ gang.

In Peanuts The Gang’s All Here! two deluxe books come in one package.

Peanuts’ creator Charles Schulz was a genius.  His portrayal of young kids and their many adventures thrilled readers for 50 years.

In this brand new Peanuts Collection each page features either a daily or Sunday strip in color starring Charlie Brown and his supporting cast.

It’s a delightful collection that provides readers hours of reading pleasure.

Get ready for chuckles, poignant observations and even a few moments of reflective pause.

It’s classic Peanuts and its as relevant today as the day each strip was first published.
