Revisit the dead-end workplace culture of the peak ’90s in the second book in the four-volume, chronological history of the iconic Dilbert comic strip. In the tradition of The Complete Far Side and The Complete Calvin and Hobbes, Dilbert 2.0 celebrates the twentieth anniversary of Scott Adams’s Dilbert, the touchstone of office humor. This special ebook collection—with 600 pages and featuring almost 4,000 strips—takes readers behind the scenes and into the early days of Scott Adams’s life pre-Dilbert and on to the success that followed when Dilbert became an internationally syndicated sensation. Divided into four different epochs, Dilbert 2.0 gives readers a glance at some of Adams’s earliest strips, like those created for Playboy, and a peek at an abundance of special content ranging from numerous rejection letters to Adams’s first cartooning check, and more. Adams personally selected the material for this collection and offers original comments and humorous asides throughout. Praise for Scott Adams and Dilbert on its twentieth Anniversary “[Scott Adams] is a VERY tough act to follow.” —The Washington Post “As you may have guessed, the office milieu gave Adams all the material he needed . . . Yup, we’ve all been there. And, of course, that’s where Dilbert’s appeal comes from. Scott Adams just made the humdrum funny, and without much exaggeration.” —Harvard Business Review “As Dilbert celebrates its twentieth anniversary, it is riding a water-cooler resurgence tethered to all the dire news stories about America’s economic woes.” —The Spokesman-Review
