The Fabulous Furry Freak Brothers - Freewheelin' Franklin, Phineas, and Fat Freddy - score some sinsemilla from a country cousin, start a softball league to score free drinks, adopt a possessed parakeet that outwits the D.E.A., and inadvertently take in a couple of undercover cops as housemates! The title story collects an epic that ran for over six months in newspapers, in which the Brothers, evicted from their apartment, move to the country to get back to nature - only to discover that nature doesn't want them! Meanwhile, Fat Freddy's Cat adapts much more readily to outdoor living. Then, in a bonus tale, the cat leads the way in the accidental animal rights adventure, "Animal Camp."Grass Roots and Other Follies is the third release in this special series of seven volumes compiling the complete Freak Brothers comic adventures. The Fabulous Furry Freak Brothers comics have sold more than 45 million copies worldwide in 16 languages, and these painstakingly restored hardcovers are the first North American bookshelf editions in more than thirty years. The Freak Brothers, the popular animated series currently streaming on Tubi - and renewed for season 2, set to release in December 2022 - stars Woody Harrelson, Pete Davidson, John Goodman, and Tiffany Haddish.

What I did not realize is that Freak Brothers is a sort of homage to classic comic strips, with structure and characters borrowed from Little Orphan Annie, Dick Tracy, and Little Nemo in Slumberland to name just a few. The Little Nemo influence was most unfortunate, as way too many strips ended with one of the characters waking up from a dream. (I HATE dream sequences.)
Other stuff I didn't like: The poor reproduction and tiny panels of the first 100 pages really strained my eyes. It seems a missed opportunity to not reprint everything in chronological order, but things seemed sort of random at times, with all the color materials having to be shoved into two narrow sections of the book (to keep costs down I suppose). Also, it seems stingy to not give more prominent credit to long-time collaborators Paul Mavrides and Dave Sheridan.
Mainly, as a total square who does not drink or do drugs, I could not find anything relatable about the comics. The Freak Brothers are slobs and substance abusers who are sexist and just not that funny. (
