Walt & Skeezix, books one and two, are the first-ever collection of this classic newspaper strip by one of the pioneering giants of American comics strips, Frank King. Not only do these volumes reprint the early years of the strip in which Frank King's friendly and nostalgic imagination took shape, but each book features an 80-page color introduction by Jeet Heer of Canada's National Post. In addition, each book features never-before-seen archival photos and ephemera from the personal collection of King's granddaughter. Walt & Skeezix is not just reprinting the classic American newspaper strip, it is the story of a great American cartoonist.
