“This is a book I will read over and over again! Five out of five for this funny collection!”
— THIS KID REVIEWS BOOKS
“Papercutz has done a great job selecting and putting together the material. . . . It’s a great chance to see [Norman] Maurer’s art, which I think is pretty overlooked these days. A worthy addition to your collection.” — COMIC ATTACK
“A testament to the vision of Moe [Howard] as well as the skill, both artistic and managerial, of [Norman] Maurer. In addition to being a darn good read, Papercutz’s second volume in the series is a respectful homage to them both.” — NEW YORK JOURNAL OF BOOKS
“The Stooges and their antics translate surprisingly well to the page as old-fashioned, multi-paneled comics that stand the test of time.” — VOYA
“A fun introduction to The Stooges for kids as well as a nice throwback for long-time fans. These comics have broader appeal than just merchandising.” — COMICS BUYERS GUIDE
“These are witty misadventures wherein The Stooges commit wonderful Stooge mayhem. It’s as if the trio were a force for good — or maybe that should be a farce for good.” — COMICS BUYERS GUIDE
“Real retro charm.” — COMIC BOOK RESOURCES
“New fans and old fans of the Stooges will want to check out this book for much needed laughs.” — COMIC ATTACK
“Won’t disappoint fans of the original films and shorts.” — PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
“A highly enjoyable collection.” — COMIC ATTACK
“These comics have held up remarkably well, and even I, a total non-Stooges fan, got a kick out of them.” — SCHOOL LIBRARY JOURNAL
“Fans of the recent movie, fans of the Stooges in general and fans of comics are going to be thrilled when they see Papercutz’ new hardcover compilation of the Stooges early years in comic history.” — DIAMOND GALLERIES SCOOP
“This new series is a great way to introduce a new generation to all the slapstick fun of eye-pokes and gags that made the comedy trio the icons they are today. Don’t pass this title up!” — SCHOOL LIBRARY JOURNAL
“Maurer’s comics have a Golden Age look and an emphasis on dense, slangy language that gussies up all the Stooge-ian head-knocking.” — THE ONION
“Mauer is a talent deserving of any and all attention paid him.” — COMIC BOOK RESOURCES
“Like both their stage show and their various film appearances, the comics are replete with full-on slapstick Stooge hilarity as the boys stumble-and bumble their way through their various antics, always somehow coming out ahead of the game and (relatively) unscathed.” — EXAMINER
“Definitely worthy of the Three Stooges legacy. The next book in the series can’t come soon enough for me.” — COMICS BUYER’S GUIDE
