While David finds solace with Katchoo, Francine can think of nothing but her past relationship with her former best friend and brings home a tattoo to prove it. It seems that Katchoo is destined to... This description may be from another edition of this product.
I just picked up all 5 volumes and have been going (slowly) through them. You can really see how the authors art and storytelling ability evolved over time. In book 1 the characters looked a little rough and the writing was fairly cliche and one dimensional. By the time you reach book 5 everything is polished. Book 5 reprints issues of the comic 61 - 76 and the Molly & Poo stories from 46, 49 and 73. On the Strangers In Paradise website they just announced that #90 will be the final issue in the series so it looks like there will be just one more Pocket Book and the entire run is complete.
SIP is great!

I can't say I'd consider myself a hardcore SIP fan since I don't buy every color issue that comes out, but I do own all 5 pocket books. I usually finish them in a couple hours because they're just that good. To those who have never read SIP, I highly recommend it. It's not a child's comic book. There are some real and deep situations in these novels and it's probably best for kids not to read them. These novels deal with (un)conditional love, where the line between the love that two people share as friends and the love that two people share as lovers is blurred. You'll find that the images are drawn to perfection, conveying emotions so well you'll swear the characters were alive. Please give this a read, you won't regret it!
