The Real-Great Adventures of Terr'ble Thompson! Hero of Hist'ry!

A single-issue comic from Fantagraphics, The Real-Great Adventures of Terr'ble Thompson! Hero of Hist'ry! (2006–present) collects the work of celebrated animator and cartoonist Gene Deitch. This volume reprints Deitch's inventive, madcap newspaper strip from the 1950s, following a hapless boy who stumbles through time with chaotic results. It’s a welcome archival spotlight on a lesser-known but wonderfully energetic piece of mid-century comic history.
