This book appeared before the avalanche of new comic books and graphic novels came on the scene, and has become a collector's item with fans of the great practitioners of these genres. Besides Ian Carr himself, this wonderful book contains early work by brilliant writers/artists now enjoying well-deserved fame. As Ian himself has written: "The 1980 Comics Annual is a rilly good book, honest! An' it has dese guys in it": Don Inman, Paul Rivoche, Ken Steacy, Arn Saba, Tom Nesbitt, Jim Simpkins, Jim Craig, Jeff Wakefield, Franc Reyes, and Bill Slavin. The editor has written more about his book: "What's Good? - some of Canada's TOP cartoonists gathered between two covers. What's bad? Never you mind. Now get out there and BUY IT."
