On the Media lauds Darby Conley as "the most successful cartoonist of the new generation." --National Public Radio

As Darby Conley's fourth treasury, this title presents strips from I'm Ready for My Movie Contract and Take Our Cat, Please!

Named Best Comic Strip of the Year in 2002 by the National Cartoonists Society, Darby Conley's Get Fuzzy takes a keen and witty look at the dynamics of interspecies cohabitation.

Beleaguered ad exec Rob Wilco is the mild-mannered guardian to Bucky, a sharp-fanged, self-absorbed house cat with a penchant for scheming and screenwriting, and Satchel, a gentle laid-back Shar-pei-Lab who frequently finds himself on the receiving end of Bucky's mischief.

Inside this fourth treasury, Get Fuzzy fans will follow Bucky's vainglorious pursuit of fame while Rob holds a magazine intervention with Satchel.

5.0 out of 5 stars A fantastic, hilarious comic strip, December 12, 2008
WarriorPrncess - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Potpourrific Great Big Grab Bag of Get Fuzzy: A Get Fuzzy Treasury (Paperback)
I won't go into how fantastic this comic strip is, but it is easily my favorite comic strip of all time. :)

For the uninitiated, there are eight collections so far and three treasuries. The fourth treasury is not yet released.

Please keep in mind that each treasury is two collections put together, so as far as I know the treasuries are the same as two of the collections, except I believe the treasuries have the Sunday comics in color while the collections have them in black and white.

In chronological order, the collections are:

1. The Dog is Not a Toy: House Rule #4
2. Fuzzy Logic: Get Fuzzy 2
3. The Get Fuzzy Experience
4. Blueprint for Disaster
5. Say Cheesy: A Get Fuzzy Collection 5
6. Scrum Bums
7. I'm Ready for My Movie Contract: A Get Fuzzy Collection
8. Take Our Cat, Please: A Get Fuzzy Collection

The treasuries are:

1. Groovitude (encompassing collections 1 and 2).

I love all the Get Fuzzy books. This is TWO of the smaller ones in one book. Be careful you do not order the books that this book contains AND this book both hoping to get even more, because you will end up with duplication! This contains BOTH My Move Contract and Take Our Cat in one book. It is not new material.

POTPOURRIFIC puts together the previously-released "Collections" I'M READY FOR MY MOVIE CONTRACT and TAKE OUR CAT, PLEASE. The Get Fuzzy Treasuries are larger-format, 8 1/2" x 11" books; the daily strips are printed in the same nice readable size as in the Collections, the Sunday strips are in color rather than in black and white, and--mostly--printed a bit larger than they were in the Collections. Altogether this contains about a year and a half of the strip (until I actually counted, I had just assumed the Collections were a year's worth and thus the Treasuries two years; not so).

Get Fuzzy follows three apartment-mates: Bucky Katt is a pint-sized megalomaniac egotist with a never-ending stream of world-domination and get-rich-quick schemes. Satchel Pooch is sweet-natured and enthusiastic, if a little dim. Okay, sometimes a lot dim. Rob Wilco is nominally head of the household, though his authority is sometimes undermined by distraction, or stunned disbelief, or a certain...Read more
