Book Description
The latest collection of Millionaire’s weekly comics strip features the high-sea adventures of an inebriate crow, a stuffed monkey, and many others. Tony Millionaire’s Maakies is one of the longest-running and most decorated weekly comic strips in America. Drinky Crow Drinks Again collects more than 200 Maakies strips from the past half-decade for the very first time! Featuring the comical high-seas adventures of a booze-soaked corvid (they don’t call him “Drinky” Crow for nothin’) and his equally-soused simian pal (Uncle Gabby), Maakies blends vaudeville-style humor and a breathtaking line that harkens back to the glory days of the American comic strip.

Book Description
The very first Maakies compilation of every strip appearing from its inception in 1994 through to 1996. Millionaire focuses on the adventures of an alcoholic and suicidal crow, mixed with shockingly elegant depictions of nautical adventures. It's all uncannily crafted with Millionaire's breathtaking line, which eerily reproduces the feel and spirit of earlier classic newspaper strips. Designed by Millionaire and Chip Kidd, whose art direction and packaging of Batman The Complete History ensured his place as one of the all time greatest book designers.

Book Description
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, never before published in book form. 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.
