Actually  this collection is much more than okay. Comprehensive  featuring Jims life as it progressed (or not) through his first five books  this special edition contains previously unpublished material including Jim in living color. No longer in syndication  the complete works of Jims Journal will be a definitive must-have collection. College students rave about Jims Journal  making it one of the most popular Generation X-oriented strips in history. Readers have grown along with Jim  as he moved from copy-store to grocery-store clerk  feigned interest in stamp collecting  faced frequent harassment from phone companies wanting him to switch his long distance service  and finally got married. From the beginning  Jims message has been \"Arent comics dumb-even this one?\" Yet even though it pokes fun at itself  the strip extols the virtues of a slacker lifestyle: Jim has a menial job  a cat  and a few friends. He doesnt do much. In fact  Jims Journal was slacker before slacker was cool. Postmodern and minimalist  the quirky Jims Journal has been featured inThe book collections I Went to College and it was okay; I Got a Job and it wasnt that bad; I Made Some Brownies and they were pretty good; I Got Married if you can believe that; and I Feel Like a Grown-up Now. In this jam-packed Pretty Good Jims Journal Treasury  readers will find the same understated and unpredictable style.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44963297525813,"sku":"ByrdShop_0740700073","price":93.78,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9780740700071.jpg?v=1770411123","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/the-pretty-good-jims-journal-treasury-the-definitive-collection-of-every-published-cartoon","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
