Hgar the Horrible: The First 50 Years

The world’s best-known Viking returns for a collection celebrating his 50th anniversary. Featuring the first ten epic years hand-picked by Dik Browne’s son, Chris Browne. It’s time to set sail with the worlds mildest marauding Viking, Hgar the Horrible and his hapless (and helpless) sidekick, Lucky Eddie and his long suffering family, his wife Helga and his duck Kveck. This collection is a celebration of the first 50 years of Hgar’s epic, never-ending quest to put meat, mead and loot on the family table, while doing as little as possible. The collection presents over 1000 daily cartoon strips, including 600 hand-picked by Dik Browne’s son Chris Browne. Featuring a foreword by Chris Browne, a feature by Brian Walker on the history of Hgar, and an article about the almost animated movie. Perfect for fans of Peanuts and newspaper gag strips, this collection is ideal for all ages. —- ISBN: 9781787741454
