THE STR IPS

ALLOVERCOFFEElaunched in theSan Francisco Chronicle

and on SFGate.com February 8, 2004. Immediately,

letters of praise, confusion, and disgust poured in. Angry

voices brought out voices of support, and debate over the

strip took on a life of its own. The strip ran in the Datebook

section four days a week for one year, then three days a

week for six months before settling into its current positionof one day a week in the Sunday Datebook.

This collection represents a selection of 151 strips from

the 320 at the time of collecting. For the most part, strips

are presented in order of publication date. In a few cases,

pieces have been placed out of order to help the flow of

the book. More on this is in the Collecting section of the

afterword.

The afterword also details the story, development, andprocess of ALL OVERCOFFEE.

Paul Madonna, San Francisco, 9.17.06

Note about the pieces:

On the bottom of each piece is the print date and number of strip. Daily and Sunday pieces were thought of as different series

and numbered accordingly. Letters d for daily, and s for Sunday precede piece numbers. Some strips form a series. Those

strips have a t for text series, followed by a series number, then an indication of its placement within the series.
