5.0 out of 5 stars Wowee!, November 29, 1998

By	G. Moses "theonlytruegeo" (Men...Of...The...Sea!) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This is AMAZING!!! The book's nice enough in itself, but the real reason why you absolutely have to buy this if you're at all into Doonesbury is the CD-ROM. We're talkin' every single strip from the beginning 'til '95! As you may know, it's virtually impossible to assemble a complete collection otherwise--there are jillions of books, nearly all of them out of print, and if you stick with the larger anthologies you'll find that many key strips are quite absent. Quite a must-buy, this is...

5.0 out of 5 stars CD-ROM is PACKED with features!, May 12, 2000

By	rkass (Boston, MA) - See all my reviews

Other reviewers have mentioned the wealth of comic strips on the CD-ROM, but there are many other features on the disc also. There is a "Media Room" including clips from the animated TV special, photos of merchandise, articles about reactions to the more controversial strips, etc. etc. There is a search option that allows you to find strips by date, character, topic, or a free word search. There are fun animations and LOADS of other surprises. This book/CD-ROM set is a true bargain.

5.0 out of 5 stars 25 Years, May 27, 2000

By	Barry King (Seoul, Korea) - See all my reviews

The CD rom is the selling point here so if you don't have access to a CD rom this is a pass. If you have access to a CD rom this is a must have. 25 years of Doonesbury. A window on the 1970's, 80's and early 90's. From Watergate, to Iran Contra to the Gulf War it's all here. The CD rom even includes the Doonesbury TV special from the 70's. Oh yeah, you get a book too with recent strips but that is definitely secondary here. If you have any interest in Doonesbury this is the purchase for you.
