  Gunther Grizzwell is your average family bear, with a wife and kids, a day job, and a bottomless appetite for anything from roadkill to the occasional forest hiker. This e-book only collection of Grizzwells comics follows Gunther, his wife, Flora, and his kids, Tucker and Fauna, on their daily exploits both in and out of the home. We see Gunther’s well-intentioned attempts at imparting fatherly wisdom, Tucker and Fauna’s clever schemes for avoiding homework, and Flora’s heroic efforts at preserving order amid her family’s various misadventures. Clever and sharply drawn, The Grizzwells is a funny and unpredictable spin on the traditional family comic strip—with bite. Created by award-winning artist Bill Schorr, it has been in syndication nationally for more than twenty years.

  Relive the romantic story of the engagement and marriage of one of America’s most endearing comic-strip heroines in this collection. 
   
  “The comic-strip character Cathy, one of America’s most famous single career women, finally got married to her hapless longtime boyfriend, Irving—and on Valentine’s Day, no less. It’s the end of an era-or was it?” —USA Today 
   
  “YES.” Rarely has one word, one positive response, resonated so loudly from the world's comic pages. But when leading lady Cathy finally took the plunge—after nearly 30 interminable years!—and accepted boyfriend Irving's marriage proposal, the occasion certainly deserved notice among Cathy fans around the globe. 
   
  The Wedding of Cathy and Irving captures all the fun, magic, and—yes—the nerve-racking overanalyzing that filled the Cathy strips leading up to the big decision and the big day itself. This collection features some of the couple's most memorable moments from throughout their long relationship, but the spotlight shines most on the year that included the unexpected “ring find,” the proposal, the “YES,” and the frenetic wedding plans that Cathy and Mom both endure and perpetuate. 
   
  The longest courtship in cartoon page history came to an end on February 5, 2005. But as The Wedding of Cathy and Irving shows, nothing is quite that simple in Cathy’s world. Whether she’s pondering pastor possibilities or worrying wedding dress selections to death, Cathy is unequalled in capturing the conundrums of modern women everywhere. It’s all Cathy, through and through.

  From the adorable to the absurd, these playful paintings are a penguin lover’s delight. 
   
  Penguins hate zombies. They also hate serpents, bad haircuts, sock monkeys, leprechauns, Halloween, oil rigs, vampire penguins, and mermaids. They really hate clowns, but they really like capes, balloons, and free vacations. 
   
  This quirky collection reveals the discriminating tastes of these adorable flightless Antarctic birds who encounter odd foes (snow sharks, beavers, cowboys, samurai . . .), but still manage to enjoy the little things in life. With wit, humor, and the occasional alien invasion, Greg Stones’s paintings capture the playfully absurd life of penguins. 
   
  Praise for Greg Stones 
   
  “Stones’s panels have a cool way of collectively turning a grin into a chuckle (and perhaps, dare it be said, into a hearty guffaw).” —Publishers Weekly
