About the author

Darby Conley is an American cartoonist best known for the popular comic strip Get Fuzzy.

Conley was born in Concord, Massachusetts in 1970, and grew up in Knoxville, Tennessee.

While in high school in 1986, he won a student cartooning competition. During his Senior Year at Doyle High School (now South-Doyle High School) in Knoxville, Conley was voted 'Most Talented' by his graduating class. He attended Amherst College, where he studied Fine Arts, drew cartoons for the student newspaper, played rugby, and was a member of an all-male, jazz-influenced a cappella group, the Zumbyes. (Fellow cartoonist alumni of Amherst include FoxTrot creator Bill Amend and the late John Cullen Murphy of Prince Valiant fame.)

Like Rob Wilco, the human protagonist in Get Fuzzy, Conley is an enthusiastic rugby union fan, playing during college and sustaining several injuries that failed to diminish his passion for the sport.

Before becoming a cartoonist, Conley held a wide array of jobs: elementary school teacher, art director for a science museum, lifeguard, and bicycle repairman. This eclectic collection of professions is reminiscent of those held by Douglas Adams, whom Conley has mentioned as a comedic influence.

Conley, an animal rights activist and vegetarian, lives in Boston.

The funniest comic strip I've ever read. Darby is amazingly clever; I've read all of these books several times and they never cease to make me laugh. I wish I could afford to send a set of them to all of my friends.
In fact, I'm thinking of buying a set and giving them to Jared for his wedding.

Featuring fresh, new takes on the classics:

"Alas, poor Yogurt, I knew him, Rob Wilco."

And another heaping serving of love from Chubby Huggs.

It was typical Get Fuzzy. I was generally amused and enjoyed it thoroughly.

My only complaint is that there was one strip which was repeated two pages later.

This is a book that takes the awesome feeling of Get Fuzzy and magnifies it. There are all types of jokes and the order of the stips is nice. I have read this over and over and still laugh at even the corniest jokes.

Back injuries, movie scripts, and ferret fights. What more could you ask for?
