It Came from the Far Side

A single oversized issue collecting the first year of Gary Larson's The Far Side newspaper strips, It Came from the Far Side was published by Andrews McMeel in 1986. This collection captures the surreal, single-panel humor that defined Larson's wildly popular and influential series, presenting a trove of his offbeat takes on science, nature, and everyday absurdity. It remains a key entry point for fans of the strip's distinctive, darkly comic voice.
