Something Chocolate This Way Comes: A Baby Blues Collection

Rick Kirkman and Jerry Scott put out a very funny cartoon strip. You dont have to be a parent to enjoy this cartoon, but if you are, it hits close to home more than once. Its also nice watching the kids get older albeit slowly in a medium that seldom allows its characters to age at all.If art imitates life, then art could probably use a good vacuuming. That is, if youre talking about life around the MacPherson house. With three kids under the age of eight, things couldnt get much busier for Darryl and Wanda, who fill the comics pages with dead-on family humor. Creators Rick Kirkman and Jerry Scott have a special talent for distilling the essence of children, families, and married couples into a comic strip that, in frame after frame and strip after strip, creates a world thats both amusing and enlightening, in large part because their work mirrors our own experiences so closely.
