Pequeñas viñetas cargadas de humor y sátira. Perfectas para pasar el rato y reírse de vez en cuando.

It's interesting to see what popular fads are going around in these older comic collections.
In this one, it was the start of the Secret Agent / 007 crazy of the early 60s.

Brant Parker & Johnny Hart, The Wondrous Wizard of ID (​​London; Coronet Books, 1965).

Good humour, for example:

King: “Come along, Earl, I'll show you around the kingdom.” ...
Earl: “Hello, peasant … How're they treating you?”
Peasant: “I can't complain.”
Earl: “How nice. Why do you say that?”
Peasant: “It's forbidden.”

- -

King: “All men are created equal.”
Crowd: “What about kings?”
King: “All kings are equal, too.”

One of the earliest ID collectons. The cartoons and ideas have not quite jelled, but have more energy and invention that latter strips.

I don't know how many of you are Wizard of Id fans, but they are some of my favorites. So when I found this book, I was like "Yeah!"

Maybe I was spoiled with the Sunday paper, seems like the newspaper contributions were funnier or more insightful. Oh well, my favorite Brant character remains the Wizard.
