- IDW’s Library of American Comics launches its new oversized hardcover "Champagne Edition" series with what historians and critics consider one of the essential masterpieces of comic strip
art, Cliff Sterrett’s Polly and Her Pals. - Polly debuted in 1912 as one of the first "pretty girl" strips, but it was in 1925 that Sterrett’s magnificent Sunday pages entered their peak
period, as he developed a style with distinctive surreal perspectives, abstract backgrounds, and bold, vibrant use of color. - Polly and Her Pals: Complete Sunday Comics, 1925-1927 reproduces
every one of Cliff Sterrett’s dynamic full-color Sunday pages from 1925 to 1927 in a large, 12" x 16" format so that it can be fully appreciated. The pages also include Sterrett’s topper
strips, Damon and Pythias and Dot and Dash. -The Library of American Comics is the world’s #1 publisher of classic newspaper comic strips, with 14 Eisner Award nominations and three wins for
best book. LOAC has become "the gold standard for archival comic strip reprints... The research and articles provide insight and context, and most importantly the glorious reproduction of the
material has preserved these strips for those who knew them and offers a new gateway to adventure for those discovering them for the first time." - Scoop -
