Summary: A Laugh a Day Helps Keep the Blues Away
Comment: I have been a faithful FoxTrot reader for years. Roger, Andy and their kids Peter, Paige and Jason are always good for a reality check with a large dose of laughter. I've got two girls and let me tell you, I see a lot of my kids in Paige with, I believe, even a healthy dose of Jason thrown in. And they have Peter's bottomless stomach. Of course, they're faithful FoxTrot readers too. I used to read the strip to them, explain what was going on, but now they get it just fine and we three all laugh together. Then my girls try and explain the strip to their dad, who pretends he doesn't get it.

The FoxTrot folks are a great family, one we sort of got used to checking up on every day, so we took the news that Mr. Amend was going to cease daily distribution of his wonderfully funny people and turn his strip to Sunday only, with a bit of sadness. Still, we have these terrific FoxTrot books to keep us going with our FoxTrot fix. Mr. Amend is to be commended for his great gift to our culture and his great gift to so many lives. I truly believe a laugh a day, helps keep the blues away and the FoxTrot gang are always good for a laugh. Heck there are a lot of laughs in the FoxTrot books. I know, I have them all and I am, along with my girls and my hubby dear, eagerly awaiting the next one.

Oh yes, I forgot to mention, we don't have an iguana, but my girls do have a pet gecko and, you guessed it, his name is Quincy.

Summary: FoxTrot : En Masse. Foxtrot, All Great!
Comment: I've been a Foxtrot reader for a long time and personally I think there is something suspiciously wrong with people who don't find Bill Amend's characters funny as all get out. If you want a good laugh, check out Bill in your local newspaper, or better yet, get one of the Foxtrot books. They are all great, really, they are.

Like many of Mr. Amend's fans I'm a bit disappointed he's switching his strip to Sunday-only, but fortunately I can still read him daily in the Foxtrot books. Get them one and all and you can keep right on a laughing.

Summary: Foxtrot at its best
Comment: FoxTrot follows a family of five through their bizzare everyday lives. Roger, the father, is a mid-level office worker, and his wife Andy is a successful columnist. Peter, the oldest child, is a high school senoir with a passion for sports but without the skill. Paige, the middle child, enjoys shopping but hates schoolwork. Jason, the youngest child, enjoys schoolwork and harrassing his sister.

This book is the second anthology of FoxTrot comic strips. Therefore, the characters have already been established, but the jokes and the storylines are still original. Among the notable storylines in this issue are a series of strips where Peter and his girlfriend Denise almost break up and a series where Jason and his friend Marcus have an essay writing contest. References to pop culture are interspersed throughout the book. The stories are still able to occasionally touch on serious, dramatic issues yet remain lighthearted. As an added bonus, the end of the book features a "comic book by Jason Fox" of Slug Man, a parody of Bat Man. FoxTrot fans should definitely own this book, but casual comic strip readers would also enjoy reading this collection of strips.

Summary: Sly Fox
Comment: Foxtrot is a hilarious comic that details the life of the Foxfamily. Roger is the ...father, Andy is the forever put uponmother and their three children, eldest son Peter, the wanna be jock,Paige, the image conscious daughter and their youngest son, Jason, thescheming child prodigy. There are constant battles between the familymembers, with Jason often in the middle of it. Bill Amend has crafteda supremely funny ...that we all can relate to in one way oranother

Editorial Reviews:

The Fox household is a non-stop, always funny, battleground: Kids, parents, and a pet iguana collide with each other and with the trappings of our times in ways that are at once surprising and yet familiar to us all. Readers young and old see themselves in this work, and readers young and old are fast becoming hooked.

This treasury, FoxTrot En Masse, contains all the cartoons from Black Bart Says Draw and Eight Yards, Down and Out.
