Publisher's Synopsis
As if it were a Calvin and Hobbes but on the outskirts of the city, and with a touch of humor even more absurd and a little more neurotic, the characters of In the Suburbs will forever hook their readers. The unstoppable Alice, her hypochondriac brother Petey, and her patient parents will experience urban adventures. Richard Thompson's art is exquisite and unique, and he manages to fill each square with a burst of personality and action. It is a comic strip that generations to come will study.
