A collective wail was heard earlier this year when readers of 1,900 newspapers discovered that Gary Larson was bowing out of daily cartooning. But fear not! Politically correct swamp monsters, fortune-telling chickens, boxing crabs, cows relaxing in a hay bar, and other creatures wrought from the imagination of this notoriously warped and wonderful wit come into readers' lives once again in his latest collection of uniquely wacky cartoons.

Over 20 million Far Side books are in print in the U.S., and the millions of Far Side fans will be clucking over Gary Larson's newest collection. Perhaps the world's favorite cartoonist, Larson continues to reach a level of demented excellence that delights his readers.

Hot on the paws of the howling success of Wiener Dog Art comes the new Far Side masterpiece Unnatural Selections. Including more than 100 cartoons in their book debut, it also unearths an original four-color insert created by Gary Larson especially for this twelfth collection. Journey back in time as Larson does for evolution what he previously did for art.

Gary Larson created eight original color cartoons exclusively for this collection--including portrayals of Wiener Dog Art in the style of the great masters. The book also exhibits more than 100 "Far Side" cartoons for the first time in book form, displaying in breadth of humor that "Far Side" fans have come to expect.

Holy cow! Larson's back with the personal obsession that took the world by its cud. In his new book he gives millions of Far Side readers something to chew on: 150 cartoons never before published in book form, as well as a hilarious full-color fold-out of cows of the planet, which is destined to become the essential bovine reference guide.

Was there life before "The Far Side?" This fabulous narrative by Gary Larson, including hundreds of cartoons, explores the most fundamental question of our day, providing a telescopic view of both the dark and the light sides of the mysterious universe of Gary Larson. Andrews, McMeel & Parker.
