Summary: Fresh for the 01: not just the same ol' comics...
Comment: I could not believe how funny this comic strip is! McGruder "keeps it real" by using the Freeman family characters to depict many aspects of African-American culture. Their coexistence within an all-white community is truly funny, and Huey's discourse often provides food for thought. This is what I want from a book: interesting characters, believable dialogue, and bust-out-loud laughter. Bottom line: I loved it!

Summary: With a compelling sense of satire
Comment: Fresh For '01...You Suckas! is a collection of cartoon strips featuring the political charged but always interesting world of Huey, an African-American city kid displaced into the unfamiliar world of white suburbia. A richly multilayered comic strip of great humor and keen insights, Fresh For '01...You Suckas! will provoke thought and improve racial discourse while provoking a laugh-out-loud response from the reader. Aaron McGruder has quite evidently tapped into his own experiences as a long black facing growing up in Columbia, Maryland to give his characters and their observations a true to life dimension that is wonderfully facilitated by his compelling sense of satire.

Summary: AN EXCELLENT FOLLOW-UP COLLECTION
Comment: This collection is an excellent follow-up to 2000's Because I Know You Don't Read The Newspaper. It's good to see another strong, interesting character like Caesar join Huey, Riley (...I mean Esco), their granddad, the DuBois family (Jazmine, Tom, and Sarah) and the clueles Cindy in whitebread Woodcrest. This comic is a breath of fresh (no pun intended) air in my daily paper. It's a shame that I only get one new strip a day though. Still, one Boondocks makes up for the void that fills the rest of the page. Thank you Aaron.
