Media Reviews
Larson communicates a great deal of information in a few simple ink lines. The expressions of his characters are vivid and immediately recognizable ... And with just a strand of beads and a pair of harlequin glasses, he can somehow transfer any animal--a shark, a bug, a warthog--into a dowdy
suburban hausfrau. (The Los Angeles Times)
Bless Gary Larson for his wonderful consistency in casting an artful eye on all of Earth's wild
critters, human or otherwise. (The Philadelphia Inquirer)
Samuel Taylor Coleridge, in between opium binges, once distinguished poetry from prose by noting that the former comprises the best words in their best order. Gary Larson s achievement in The Far Side(r) is to have pulled off much the same thing in a humbler medium: the best joke told with the best image there is no excuse not to have some Larson in your life.
