New Yorkers (and New Yorkers-at-heart) ate it up. For the first time, a comprehensive collection of those comic strips has been included in one volume, Stan Mack’s Real Life Funnies, from Fantagraphics.About the Author: Stan Mack pioneered a documentary style of cartooning with his legendary New York comic strip “Stan Mack’s Real Life Funnies,” which ran in The Village Voice.
