It contains more than 1000 comics and the first volume will be released in stores June 11. An exciting addition to The Library of American Comics, an imprint of IDW Publishing<!--more-->, The Complete Little Orphan Annie, Vol. 1 is edited and designed by Dean Mullaney, who as founder\u00a0of Eclipse Comics in 1977 became a leader of the 1980s indie comics movement. Since then, Mullaney has become a specialist in restoring and re-presenting classic American comic strips. His work on The Complete Terry and The Pirates has earned him a 2008 Eisner Award nomination.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">This first volume of The Complete Little Orphan Annie\u00a0\u00bb\u00a0\u00bbWill Tomorrow Ever Come?\u00a0\u00bb\u00a0\u00bbstarts at the beginning in 1924, and includes the first nine complete stories, until the end of 1927. \u00ab\u00a0It&rsquo;s through the incredible trials and tribulations of these first three years,\u00a0\u00bb Mullaney says, \u00ab\u00a0that Annie emerges as the kid with a heart of gold and a quick left hook.\u00a0\u00bb<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The book also contains the first-ever detailed look at creator Harold Gray by noted comics scholar Jeet Heer. With unprecedented access to the Harold Gray Archives at Boston University, nearly every strip in the book has been reproduced from its original artwork or syndicate proof. Little Orphan Annie never looked so good.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Little Orphan Annie has become a cultural icon\u00a0\u00bbin both her redheaded, blank-eyed appearance, and as the embodiment of American individuality, spunk, and self-reliance. Even those who&rsquo;ve never read the comic strip are keenly aware of the plucky orphan, her loveable mutt Sandy, and her adoptive benefactor, Oliver \u00ab\u00a0Daddy\u00a0\u00bb Warbucks through the Broadway play, the hit movie, and the song \u00ab\u00a0Tomorrow,\u00a0\u00bb made famous by both.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Harold Gray said of his famous character, \u00ab\u00a0Life to her was deadly serious. She had to be hard to survive, and she meant to survive.\u00a0\u00bb<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u00ab\u00a0With Dick Tracy, Terry &amp; the Pirates and Little Orphan Annie, IDW has the crown jewels of the world famous Chicago Tribune comics section, making the California-based company a major player in what has become a new golden age of comic strip reprints,\u00a0\u00bb says ICv2.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Harold Gray was born in 1894 in Kankee, Illinois, and began his cartooning career as an assistant to Sydney Smith, creator of the famously successful strip, The Gumps. Gray wrote and illustrated Little Orphan Annie from 1924 until his death in 1968.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">About IDW Publishing<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">IDW is an award-winning publisher of comic books, graphic novels and trade paperbacks, based in San Diego, California.
