Shark Years I'm Dead

Extremely cleverly cartoon with a wonderful "cast" of believable sea creatures. Pure delight and full of great humor.

Warning this book may cause excssive amounts of laughter

Shermans Lagoon has to be the best comic I have ever read! (and trust me I read a lot of comics) This book deserves no less than 10 stars,it is so funny because of its cast of characters. They range from a fish genious to a big mean giant squid. But the top character has to be Hawethorne the hermit crab who seems to endlessly take advantage of Sherman the shark. BUY THIS BOOK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

freakin' funny

This is a really fun compilation. They did a great job selecting the cartoons for this one. If they start a thread, they finish it.

Sherman is Great

Can't say enough good things about Sherman's Lagoon. This is a laugh out loud book, and there are a lot of toons in this volume. If you have never read Sherman's Lagoon go with the first book to get some background on the characters then just go with the flow. After you are tuned into how everyone relates any one of the Sherman books are excellent.

Laughs on every page!

I'm a Sherman's Lagoon fan, so I may be a bit biased, but I found this Treasury hilarious!! They've certainly put the best bits in, I was laughing on every page! I also found it really good value for money - over 200 pages of top quality comic strips (Sunday strips were also in colour which was great!). Fantastic buy all round!!
