Zippy Annual
2002 collects approximately a year's worth of strips, including full-color
Sundays, from 2001 and 2002. This new volume includes several continuing
storylines. One follows the high drama when Zippy's own favorite (fictional)
comic strip, "Nimrod," is dropped from his daily newspaper, a
thinly disguised parody of what happened when one of Zippy's papers tried
(and failed) to drop Griffith's strip. Also, Zippy bumps into dead newspaper
baron William Randolph Hearst, visits innumerable roadside attractions,
and reacts to the events of Sept. 11th, 2001, in a series of emotionally-charged
strips.
Frivolity is a stern taskmaster, and these brilliantly designed strips have
never reproduced better, making Zippy Annual 2002 a perfect showcase for
Griffith's inimitably existential and surreal sense of humor, a must-have
and perfect gift book for the millions who find Zippy a rare diamond in
the rough of today's newspaper comic pages.
