Product Description

Bucky B. Katt is leading the charge of the Highlands Kittyscouts. Bolstered by his roommates Rob Wilco (decked out in a borrowed hotel bathrobe and a Burger King crown) and Satchel Pooch (protected by a colander helmet), the trio from Get Fuzzy are ready to entertain their readers with another collection of their antics. Bucky's crazy schemes and snarky attitude play off the good hearted Satchel and the exasperated Rob to endless comic results.

Dumbheart Is A Success4
Three cheers for Dumbheart! Without a doubt, Conley has delivered another great Get Fuzzy collection. I hold all of the collections up against Scrum Bums when rating and this one has done the best so far. Though Conley introduces more characters and widens the peanut gallery that populates his strip, he gets back to the classic formula that made his strip such a success: A not-so-bright Satchel, Bucky at his Buckiest, and Rob who just tries to keep a handle on the circus.

Hilarity ensues, the Sunday strips are in color, what more could you ask for from a Get Fuzzy collection?

Still Got It5
Some of us who've been reading Fuzzy since its inception tend to complain that it's not quite as funny as it once was, but looking at the collections, it's like a shift from A+ to A- at worst. This one "trends in a cat direction," as Satchel tells Rob at one point, with great appearances by Mac Manc McManx, Foodar and others, and ends with a kind of fashion war between Bucky and Fungo the ferret. Though there are a few sub-par weeks, the artwork is unfailingly expressive and nuanced as in no other strip since Bloom County - a friend who doesn't even read the comics broke up while looking at the cover. One wishes that Rob would get a girlfriend - which has done wonders for Garfield - at least to give Satchel and Bucky a new bone of contention, but that's in Mr. C's hands.

Darby Conley is brilliant5
Despite being a daily "Get Fuzzy" reader, I always purchase the collections. The antics of Bucky, Satchel, and Rob never get boring, and I am frequently delighted to rediscover a story line that I had forgotten.
