The Prehistory of the Far Side

On this the tenth anniversary of drawing The Far Side, I thought it might be time to reveal some of the background, anecdotes, foibles and behind the scenes experiences related to this cartoon panel. (This may or may not be of interest to anyone, but my therapist says it should do me a lot of good)...

A chronicle of The Far Side's birth and evolution complete with various mutations and annotations from readers and the author.
