Book Description: THE K CHRONICLES is a semi-autobiographical comic strip bycartoonist/rapper Keith Knight that appears weekly on salon.com and inmany other fine publications (like the Pacific Sun, Las Vegas Mercury, Funny Times, and more). The strip is an unabashedly provocative mix of political and social satire; tackling such touchy subjects as racism, violence, and sex with a self-deprecating humor, personal honesty and light-hearted goofiness rarely found in a newspaper comic. The result is accessible yet subversive, compassionate and political, without being preachy. Described as a combination of Calvin & Hobbes and underground comix, The K Chronicles has garnered a large fan base that includes SpikeLee, Matt Groening, Garry Trudeau, Dave Eggers and Maya Angelou. What A Long Strange Strip It`s Been will feature over one-hundred K Chronicles strips (including `Life`s Little Victories`), plus some multi-page stories and strips that have never before seen print. The author, Keith Knight, is also developing an animated series for Nickelodeon.
Another great read Keith just keeps it coming: laughs, politics, absurdity, and pathos, all rolled into one great compendium. Thanks, Keith.
Brilliant, funny, fantastic! Another great great comic collection from the marvelous Keith Knight. Buy it, you'll love it.
The 'K' Chronicles: What a Long Strange Strip it's Been OK...... Want to read a strip that is written/illustrated by a guy who's I.Q. is at least 25 points higher than yours? And totally love the experience? This is it. This man can write and he can draw. His strips are wry, droll, clever, unpredictable, artful, sexual, slapstick, charming, self-disclosive, humble, FUNNY!!!!! The drawings alone can make you laugh....the text will make you laugh out loud...or wince! I dare you to read this guy and not want to get to know him.....Mr. Knight comes across so honest, it is unsettling. His alter ego in the strip is wildly egotistical and never fails to get flattened like a 'cartoon character' when reality comes steam rolling over him.......this character is a riot and this young man is just awesome. Too original for the 'mainstream', he deserves every success. So support a brilliant newcomer....... Run ahead of the pack and buy this book. It's a riot!
Laugh yourself to tears Keith Knight has the sort of sense of humor that can make you laugh until your belly aches. This is FUNNY!
