Still A Few Bugs In The System

 

By G.B. Trudeau

I think this was one of the first Doonesbury collections to be published back in the early 1970s. In it Mike Doonesbury is just a lad freshly launched into college life, probably still a virgin and striving to find a girl friend. 

Here we meet some of the recurring characters that featured in the strips, B.D. the jock; Mark Slackmeyer the rebel; Berne, the science nerd and Calvin, the black activist. 

Sample from the book:




For me, this was a visit back to the good old days, as I was a teen in the 1970s. I truly enjoyed revisiting that time as depicted in these strips. I probably like them better now than I did in my ignorant youth.
