The Illustrated Krazy

Chapter 16 - Fantastic Little Monster

The few profiles of Herriman written during his lifetime are included in this gallery, including features by Damon Runyon and Herriman’s old World colleague Roy McCardell, as well as a letter from Herriman himself. These profiles both reveal biographical information and embellish a few myths about Herriman’s early life. Also featured are samples of the short-lived strip Now Listen Mabel and the funny but unsuccessful reboot of Mary’s Home from College.
