5.0 out of 5 stars "The Lone Iguana says don't touch that dial...", November 3, 2003

Feeling a little down? Having a hard time laughing? Well, FoxTrot will cure you of that in no time! After all of these years, this comic strip is still able to make me laugh, make me smile and make me forget about my problems, even if it's just for a little bit. "The Return of the Lone Iguana" is a hilarious collection of FoxTrot strips that will have you laughing over and over again. With 128 pages filled with FoxTrot hilarity, this is a collection that will not disappoint.

Everything is fair game in the Fox Family. Jason continues to drive his sister insane with his various toy weapons and pet iguana. Peter is still doing essays at the last minute (literally!) and is driving his parents nuts with his loud music. And of course, Andy has to put up with her husband's stupidity and insanity. Yes, it is an ordinary day for the Fox Family.

In addition to the triumphant return (return?) of the Lone Iguana, you'll also get:

*Paige's mall trip with Peter*

*Jason's new internet*
*Peter's sick day from school*
*Jason's "The Far Side II"*
*Halloween with the Fox Family*
*Paige in a play*
*Thanksgiving: the meal of horrors*

and a whole lot more!

"The Return of the Lone Iguana" is a hilarious FoxTrot collection that does not disappoint for a single second. If you're a fan of the comic strip, then I highly recommend checking it out. If you have never read FoxTrot before... the more reason to check it out!

This review is from: The Return of the Lone Iguana : A FoxTrot Collection (Paperback)

The fox family endures yet another ride of "the lone igauna", Jason's new interest in the internet and becoming a "X-Files" agent, Paige's role as "Cleopatra" in the school play and the rest of the fox clan's humorous exploits! It holds up to Bill Amend's unbroken line of classic cartoons!
