(The May 3, 1977 issue of "The Washington Post" reported t...)
The May 3, 1977 issue of "The Washington Post" reported there was no truth to published reports that the Washington Redskins were signing "Lava-Lava" Lenny, the 390-pound "Polynesian Panzer," or that team President Edward Bennett Williams gave permission to use player pension funds to keep the big fellow in pineapples. "Lava-Lava" Lenny was a fictional creation of G. B. Trudeau, who needed a reason that Williams would hire former Ambassador Duke as the General Manager for the Redskins, even in a comic strip. Then again, who else had better expertise in sports medicine? The experience could certainly not be any worse than having the man give a speech on a college campus. The "Doonesbury" daily comic strips collected in "But the Pension Fund Was Just Sitting There" are from 1978-1979, when President Jimmy Carter was looking over weapon systems and Georgetown students were protesting Professor Henry Kissinger giving a speech for at a dinner honoring the wife of the Shah of Iran (of course, it is impossible to read some of these strips and not remember what was to come in the years ahead). Meanwhile, Comrade Phred is the new Vietnamese ambassador to the U.N., Rick Redfern has to be part of the White House press corp, and Dr. Dan Asher, author of the phenomenally successful "Mellow: How to Get It" is on the Mark Slackmeyere show (but so is his old man and Congresswoman Lacey Davenport). Of course, today the idea of 390-pound linemen in the NFL does not sound so far fetched, but the strips that really hit home here are the ones where ABC's chief of programming Freddie Silverman checks out what NBC is doing in response to his "jiggle" shows and the solution is--full frontal nudity. Characters Uncle Duke, "Lava Lava" Lenny, Zonker Harris, Mark Slackmeyer, Barney Perkins, Weinburger, Roland Burton Hedley, Jr., Mike Doonesbury, B.D., Phred, Victor, "Lava-Lava" Lenny, Phil Slackmeyer, Lacey Davenport, Dick Davenport

Three years of Doonesbury are packed into this Trudeau tour de force (pardon my French), his 4th major anthology. These three years coincide with the election campaign, inauguration and first couple of years in office of "the First Cowboy." More than 500 dailies and 80 full-color Sundays. This is Trudeau at his trenchant best. Worth it just for the introduction by Gloria Steinem (if you're a Gloria Steinem fan).

("No one ruffles feathers as consistently as Trudeau, who ...)
"No one ruffles feathers as consistently as Trudeau, who regularly deals with hot-button topics all within the four panels of his daily comic strip." --Pittsburgh Post Gazette This book-plus package offers a breathtaking view of the Doonesbury universe in one integrated package. Start with the book: a rich, oversize anthology, jam-packed with America's most provocative and pointed satire -- including 80 Sunday strips in full color. From O.J. and Mr. Butts to Whitewater and Tailgate, from Mike, Kim, and Alex's funky software start-up company to Duke and Earl's Las Vegas long shots, Trudeau tracks the fierce strangeness of end-of-century life through the ever-intertwining fortunes of his substantial cast. Bundled with this impressive tome is the Doonesbury Flashbacks CD-ROM, a complete account of all things Doonesbury over the course of the strip's first 25 years. The disc contains more than 9,000 strips, archived with every search mode imaginable -- readers can locate strips by character, topic, chronology, dialogue, or location. Contemporary newspaper headlines, articles, quotes, and factoids give useful context for the historically clueless. Other features include a digital bibliography of Doonesbury books, posters, videos, and audio recordings; a Doonesbury trivia game, complete with unctuous host (Mike) and decorative hostess (Boopsie); a Doonesbury timeline; elaborate character bios; and animation. A useful print capability lets users generate crisp refrigerator art from any strip. Thanks to this digital cornucopia you can relive the ages of Aquarius, Reagan, and O.J. through the eyes of G.B. Trudeau and his merry band of misfits.

(On a road outside Fallujah, an RPG blows apart a Humvee a...)
On a road outside Fallujah, an RPG blows apart a Humvee and upends the life of a former football star. As a medevac chopper swoops down, the wounded Guardsman hears "Not your time, bro. Not today," and his remarkable healing journey begins. Thousands of U.S. soldiers have suffered grievous wounds in Iraq, but only one of them is a Doonesbury character. The Long Road Home: One Step at a Time chronicles seven months of cutting-edge cartooning, during which B.D.-and readers of the strip-got an up-close schooling in a kind of personal transformation no one seeks. Deprived not only of leg but also his ubiquitous trademark helmet, B.D. survives first-response Baghdad triage, evacuation to Landstuhl's surgeon-rich environment, and visits by innumerable morale-boosting celebs, both red and blue in hue. He's awed in turn by morphine, take-no-guff nurses, his fellow amps, and his family, including the daughter who hand-delivers succor, one aspirin at a time. Transferred stateside to Walter Reed's Ward 57, B.D. is inspired by the wisdom of physiatrists, warmed by the dedicated ministrations of real-life fellow-amp heroes like Jim the Milkshake Man, and dazzled by high-tech prostheses that cost more than luxury cars. He's annoyed by his own bouts with self-pity, by the bedside awkwardness of friends more comfortable regarding his stump from e-mail distance, and by Zonk's unwavering commitment to supplementing his care with organic meds. As their journey continues, B.D. and Boopsie are cared for by Fisher House, a home-next-door-to-the-hospital for families whose lives revolve around therapy. B.D. finds himself painfully engaged in building his future, one sadistically difficult physical therapy session at a time. "To Lash, Helga, and the Marquis!" toast the band of differently limbed brethren, raising their glasses to their PT masters as they prepare for reentry into the ambulatory world. From rebuilding tissue to rebuilding social skills to rebuilding lives, B.D's inspiring, insightful, and darkly humorous story confirms that it can take a village, or at least a ward, to raise a soldier when he's gone down. "Thank you for getting blown up," offers one of B.D.'s visiting players. Replies the coach, "Just doing my job."
