- Summary:
- The definitive collection: greatest hits, unseen gems, new shots across the bow of the American zeitgeist--and a cool color section For more than fifteen years, Tom Tomorrow has been providing his uniquely acerbic, witty, and altogether clearheaded view of media, politics, and society in his syndicated cartoon. With an ever-increasing fan base, an expanding number of publications who regularly feature his work, and one of the most popular and most visited web-logs (www.thismodernworld.com), the time is now for The Great Big Book of Tomorrow. This massive showcasing of Tomorrow's greatest hits, unseen gems and obscurities, new material, and a color section is the most definitive collection to date of one of the most popular cartoonists ever--a delight for longtime fans and new readers alike.
