Drinky Crow may be the drunken star of the weekly comic strip Maakies, but more often than not he plays straight man to the hapless ape, Uncle Gabby. Here is the newest collection of Tony Millionaire's strip - featuring two years of strips collected for the first time. The suicide jokes may come less frequently than in earlier years, but the comedy and superb drawing style are at their peak, as is the volume of triple-X cartoon booze consumed. Maakies blends vaudeville-style humour and a breathtaking line that recalls the glory days of American comics.
