This giftable hardcover book showcases hand-picked one-panel comics from the past twenty years and also includes an interview with the writer of \u003ci\u003eTHE LOCKHORNS\u003c\/i\u003e, Bunny Hoest. \u003c\/b\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eThe Lockhorns\u003c\/i\u003e gently (and sometimes sharply) pokes fun at the antics of Loretta and Leroy Lockhorn. The panel finds laughs in the foibles of both partners, but their snappy repartee and witty banter belies the couple's deep love and commitment to one another. Readers recognize the dialogue and illustrations as completely relatable--a window into their own lives or the lives of their family and friends. No matter what problems come their way, through thick and thin, through couples counseling and trips to the bar (for Leroy) or the mall (for Loretta), the pair realizes that they're together \"'til death do us part.\" And they wouldn't have it any other way!\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBunny Hoest\u003c\/b\u003e is one of the most widely read cartoonists today, reaching nearly 200 million diverse readers around the world every week.
