Product Description
Collecting more than 42 weeks of Jim Toomey's Sherman's Lagoon, this collection transports readers to an imaginary lagoon near the South Pacific island of Kapupu, where a cast of coral reef critters battles the encroachment of civilization.Inhabitants of this nautical neighborhood include Sherman, an always hungry and otherwise typical great white shark and his witty, pearl-wearing wife, Megan, along with friendly Fillmore the turtle, geeky fish Ernest, macho hermit crab Hawthorne, and salty old Captain Quigley, who remains vengeful after losing his leg to Sherman.
About the Author
Jim Toomey was born and raised in Alexandria, Va. Following family tradition, he studied mechanical engineering at Duke University, but he left that career to become a political cartoonist. Jim launched Sherman's Lagoon in 1991 and was picked up by Creators Syndicate later that year. A philosopher, surfer, scuba diver, and sailor, Jim lives in Maryland with his wife, daughter, and son.Author's web site: http://www.slagoon.com/

This review is from: Yarns and Shanties (And Other Nautical Baloney): The Twelfth Sherman's Lagoon Collection (Paperback)
For the life of me, I can't figure out why Sherman's Lagoon isn't more popular. Toomey has developed great characters over the years, and he manages to keep them funny. Great stuff!

toomey is managing to stay fresh and interesting with a relatively small cast and simple stage, he's turning out to be a real winner, as good as any daily strip writer there is currently working
