User Friendly book from O'Reilly

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the ain't-that-spiffy dept.

Geoff Romer writes "Illiad just announced a book deal for his User Friendly comic strip, and the publisher is none other than our good friends O'Reilly and Associates! Three cheers for both of them! Details are here. " Congrats to both of them. It would be awesome to do an animal cover of dust puppy ;)

  1. New stuff? by dmorin · · Score: 3

    I'm definitely impressed by the book deal, and my congratulations go out to him. Does anybody know if there'll be new stuff in the book, though? I mean, haven't we all read through all of the archives? What fun would that be? I know that, in the old days when I would buy the Calvin & Hobbes books, the worst thing in the world to see was "Some strips previously published." Oh boy, I bought it once now I can buy it again :).

    I realize that this is the first print book for UF and there'll be zillions of people that haven't seen any of them yet, but to those of us who have read the archive, it is like reprinting previously released stuff.
