Summary: Establishing the FoxTrot Characters
Comment: I personally enjoy most of the FoxTrot comic strips, which follow a family of five through their everyday lives. The father, Roger, is a mid-level office worker with a bland career. His wife Andy has developed a successful career as a columnist. Their children consist of Peter, a wannabe athelete; Paige, a fashion and social conscious teenager; and Jason, a nerdy elementary schoolkid.
This book really begins to establish the characters and the storytelling, which is why I only give it four stars instead of five. The first half of the book starts out with some simple jokes, gags, and storylines that the average reader would enjoy but the longtime FoxTrot fan might find a little tame. Towards the end of the book, however, the characterization is very solid, the jokes are more original, and the storylines are very good. Some of the storylines deal with quite serious scenarios (such as Jason falling off the roof of his house) with a skillful mixture of humor and seriousness that make FoxTrot the excellent comic strip that it is.

Summary: How "FoxTrot" began
Comment: "FoxTrot" rules, and I'm a proud owner of the first book of the hilarious strip. FoxTrot's early year rules. The current FT strips are funny, but not funnier than the strips from 1988-89. I like the series of strips where Roger got the Pawnmaster chess player. (bleep! Nice move, moron, checkmate). I highly recommend it.
