...whip smart, she earned an equally well-deserved reputation for lack of tact. Poised and pleasant with clients, Watkins often barreled right through her colleagues. They nicknamed her the "Buzz Saw." One boss pulled her aside and said, "Sherron, you kind of cut people off at the jugular. There they are bleeding at the neck, and then you decide it was rude, but it's too late, you can't stop the blood flow...

Herriman's best "Krazy Kat" work appeared in his full-page Sunday strips since this allowed him the most amount of freedom of form. So here they are, printed in chronological order with their date of publication. The collection's designer, Chris Ware (of "Jimmy Corrigan" fame), wisely makes his hand all but invisible. The strips are just black and white because William Randolph Hearst, syndicator and patron saint...
