About the author

Was an American cartoonist and animator, best known for the comic strip Little Nemo (begun 1905) and the animated cartoon Gertie the Dinosaur (1914). For legal reasons, he worked under the pen name Silas on the comic strip Dream of the Rarebit Fiend.
A prolific artist, McCay's pioneering early animated films far outshone the work of his contemporaries, and set a standard followed by Walt Disney and others in later decades. His comic strip work has influenced generations of artists, including creators such as William Joyce, André LeBlanc, Moebius, Maurice Sendak, Chris Ware and Bill Watterson.

Reviews

[Michael A. Johnston · Rating 4 out of 5]

Flip becomes the star of the comic in this Volume, which I deem a minus to it. A little bit of his antics go a long way. The stories don't seem to thread together as well as they did in Volumes 2 and 3, IMO. Still worthwhile though.
