Over the Hedge 2

Firts I watched the movie, then found the on-line comic strip. Now I'm a collector of the books. They keep me laughing.

Arguably, Over the Hedge is one of the best strips out there today, and this anthology is a great continuation of the first, picking up right where it left off. The sub-urban hijinks pick right up and go into overtime, as RJ and Verne continue gaining insights to suburban life(including swiping Nate's new Hog, and trying out for the Olympics), and continue losing their otherwise-useful instincts. When you get right down to it, who needs to know how to hunt when you can fly fish a couple dozen franks right off the grill?

They're quick-witted, irrepressible, and alarmingly insightful when it comes to pointing out the foibles of their pink primate neighbours. This is without a doubt one of THE best written and illustrated comics out there today.

There's very little you can say that is worthy of the comic strip and this wonderful collection. With topics as varied as the internet and lawn decorations, RJ and Verne never lose their unique perspective on life in the suburbs and beyond. This will be my holiday gift to all my best friends.
