The Greatest Of Marlys by Lynda Barry

Lynda Barry had a bona fide hit with Cruddy, and her fans are now calling for her older comic strips, all out of print. This book answers the call as it delivers the life and times of Marlys Mullen, the most beloved character in Barry's nationally syndicated comic strip, 'Ernie Pook's Comeek.' Way back in the mid-1980s, Barry introduced the character of Marlys Mullen, her crazy groovy teenage sister Maybonne, her sensitive and strange little brother Freddie, a mother like no other, and an array of cousins and friends from the 'hood. This oversized book presents the long strange journey through puberty and life that Marlys and company have experienced. Marlys's universe and galaxy are funny, rude, disturbing, tearful . . . in short, very, very Lynda Barry.

Ernie Pook's Comeek, a comic strip by Lynda Barry, appears in 20 weekly newspapers in the United States and Canada. Her writing has appeared in a variety of magazines, including The New York Times, Esquire, Newsweek, and others. She is a Wisconsin resident.
