Beetle Bailey as a strip has shown a hardening of the arteries over the years, as evidenced by this selection of strips from the 1980s. It is not nearly as consistently funny as classic Beetle fron the 60s and 70s, which were the strip's best decades. Still, there are sill enough good strips to make it worth owning for the ardent fan.

The cast of characters at Camp Swampy are just as funny as ever. They have not lost their "core" characters that their creator, Mort Walker assigned to them. They remain true to their characters and remain funny to this day.

Beetle Bailey has certainly raised the bar in comic excellence; nobody could EVER forget that lazy, lovable and TOTALLY funny work dodging private! I think Beetle Bailey should be promoted to Private First Class and Sarge to Sgt. Major. Poor Sarge has had all he could do trying to rein in his wayward men. This is truly an excellent collection.

Hey yeah, secret beatnik Beetle Bailey, we got real reason ta celebrate him! That man worm his way into da heart o' darkness army and show them da ways o' true anarchist work ethic! From da deep gritty inside to da sheer gritty outside, da Beetle Dude weave his magic subverso laziness and take down da military industrial complex slow but sure. When it all come to a grindin' halt, we have da Beetle Dude ta thank. Sarges everywhere are shakin' in der boots. Rock on and Hail Bailey! 5 badass black stars!
