The screwball comic strips of Milt Gross will be available in the volume, Gross Exaggerations: The Meshuga Comic Strips of Milt Gross. This comprehensive collection of Gross’ comic strips compiles works from Nize Baby, Count Screwloose, and Dave’s Delicatessen. It also features other comic strips that originally appeared in books and magazines.

Throughout his career, Gross worked in movies and animation, he wrote comical poetry and illustrated novels. He is best known for the exaggeration and Yiddish-style dialogue in his strips.

“Beginning in the 1920s, his comics were born of the Yiddish humor in vaudeville and expanded to lampooning all the foibles and fallacies of American life. Filled with bizarre characters and frenzied, slapstick action, Gross’ newspaper comics entertained readers for decades,” IDW’s description reads.

Gross Exaggerations: The Meshuga Comic Strips of Milt Gross is a full-color, 144-page book published by IDW. Most of these Gross strips have not been reprinted before this volume.
