Father and Son
is one of the most beloved comic strips ever drawn—an uproarious, timeless ode to the pleasures, pitfalls, and endless absurdity of family life.
is a slyly heartwarming, dizzyingly inventive classic in the tradition of
Calvin and Hobbes
and
The Simpsons
. Created in 1934 by the German political cartoonist Erich Ohser (using the pseudonym E.O. Plauen after being blacklisted for his opposition to the Nazi regime), the gruff, loving, mustachioed father and his sweet but troublemaking son embark on adventures both everyday and extraordinary: family photoshoots and summer vacations, shipwrecks and battles with gangsters, a Christmas feast with forest animals and a trip to the zoo. Drawn almost entirely without dialogue, the strips overflow with slapstick, fantasy, and anarchic visual puns.
remains an uproarious, timeless ode to the pleasures, pitfalls, and endless absurdity of family life.
This NYRC edition is an extra-wide hardcover with raised cover image, and features new English hand-lettering.
