- Fox Trot was a strip I read from the beginning in my college newspaper back in the late 1980s. I used to buy the books in order to keep up with the strip, but when my wife and I had kids in the mid 1990s, I stopped buying those. Getting this collection was like jumping on a time machine to Fun-Fun Mountain. Being reunited with Paige, Peter, Jason, and their parents was like rediscovering old friends and old favorite foods that you had forgotten existed. This book is filled with strips Bill Amend personally picked out from his two-decade run creating the strip, and there are occasional annotations (not enough for my taste) by Amend that let us know what he was thinking about some of the strips.
My only complaint about this collection was that it only had about 1700 strips. There were another 6700 or so I would love to have read again. - Great collection in a large format. Lots of fun to read, even though dated on some subjects and technology, but that is to be expected on a retrospective collection. Wish there were more author's notes, but no big deal, this is great.
- I've been a Foxtrot fan for over a decade, so this was a great purchase. I've already read it a few times in the short time I've had it.
- GREAT PRODUCT
- This two-volume collection is a great refresher of FOXTROT from the beginning to the
end of the daily run strips. Each strip has it printed date. Why I waited two years
to purchase, but glad I did a week ago here on . Margin andecdotes from
Bill Amend make for fun reading. - I ordered this and received one of the volumes, without the box or the second volume. I contacted them immediately, and they said they would get me the boxed set... months ago. I am very disappointed.
- Great for any FoxTrot fan or any comics fan in general. Funny, clever, and just a tad nerdy. ) Best comics I've ever read.
- I buy these for my husband..he has yet to be disappointed in either the books or the shippers
