About the author

Was an American cartoonist and animator, best known for the comic strip Little Nemo (begun 1905) and the animated cartoon Gertie the Dinosaur (1914). For legal reasons, he worked under the pen name Silas on the comic strip Dream of the Rarebit Fiend.
A prolific artist, McCay's pioneering early animated films far outshone the work of his contemporaries, and set a standard followed by Walt Disney and others in later decades. His comic strip work has influenced generations of artists, including creators such as William Joyce, André LeBlanc, Moebius, Maurice Sendak, Chris Ware and Bill Watterson.

Rare Bits ! Um !

[Al Capwned · Rating 4 out of 5]

So witty and extremely interesting. It's always nice to observe each time and place in history by its contemporary comic strips and humour.

[Kim · Rating 5 out of 5]

The book itself is not a "complete" collection. But a DVD with complete comic strips is included.
