Completely Pip and Norton TPB (2002) comic books 1980 or later

1st printing. Written by Dave Cooper and Gavin McInnes. Art and cover by Dave Cooper. Pip & Norton have been together for nearly as long as Ernie & Bert, but not as long as Sylvester & Tweety. They've existed for much longer than there have been comic-book stories written about them. By the time that happened, they had their schtick totally nailed. This graphic novel includes all their best work plus their first appearance in the Dark Horse anthology Scatterbrain. The story, "Spinning Buddha," is all about poor impressionable Pip's uncontrollable infatuation with material possessions, in this case the latest, fanciest of toys: The Spinning Buddha. Also included are several other epic stories from other Dark Horse anthologies; and many of the best monthly P&N strips that have appeared in the edgy youth culture magazine Vice over the past three years; plus a new 10-page extravaganza about Pip's obsessive love for Barbra Streisand, and Barbra's earth-shattering psychic powers! All these things (and more) are wrapped up like a gift. Eye-popping covers and endpapers will make you feel like you've just visited some miraculous synthesis of the Louvre and Disneyland. Softcover, 8-in. x 7 1/2-in., full color. Cover price $9.95.
