From the Publisher:

"The third collection of one of America's most popular weekly comic strips, When We Were Very Maakies features the comical adventures of a drunken crow on the high seas, blending vaudeville-style humor and a breathtaking line that harkens back to the glory days of the American comic strip. Designed by publishing's foremost graphic designer, Chip Kidd, When We Were Very Maakies is our third collection and features over two years' worth of Maakies in a beautiful, deluxe, landscape hardcover format that complements the strip's elegant and classical style."

"Millionaire is a great master of the old-time free-wheeling comic strip, and this work takes full advantage of every last bit of the medium. Transporting, irreverent and unique, all beautifully drawn." – Publishers Weekly (starred review)
