Based on the bestselling comic book and graphic novel series, this is the ultimate compendium of Strangers in Paradise , the critically acclaimed story of two ordinary women whose friendship turns to love during one violent summer. Author Terry Moore weaves a fascinating director's cut of the entire series from its quiet beginnings to the terrifying climax, compiling the best of the best from the first sixty-plus issues, adding never-before-seen pages and insightful commentary, and reconstructing the lives of Katchoo (the beautiful young rebel), Francine (the lovable neurotic), and the rest of his cast into a spellbinding story all its own, perfect for newcomers and hardcore fans alike.
While the 'Strangers in Paradise' series is about as good as the graphic novel/comic genre gets, the treasury edition is merely rehashing all the editions with a small amount of (somewhat incidental) commentary by Moore. It is really aimed toward those who are beginning the series, and even then I would recommend the pocket books over this treasury edition, which only hints at the actual wonders of the story. Some of the covers and artwork are quite interesting, but only for the hardcore 'Strangers in Paradise' fanatic.
