Ruben Bolling's Tom the Dancing Bug is widely hailed as being one of the most influential and creative comic strips of the '90s and '00s, and Clover Press is busy reprinting that series in a new batch of collected editions. Next up is a two-volume set collecting the series' run from 1990 to 1998.

With Clover Press' latest Tom the Dancing Bug crowdfunding campaign now live, IGN can exclusively debut a new preview of the book and the accompanying lithograph art print. Check them out in the slideshow gallery below:

Tom the Dancing Bug started out as a surrealist alternative to traditional newspaper comic strips. The series increasingly took on a more political humor-focused approach, first in the wake of 9/11 and then as a response to the election of Donald Trump. The Complete Tom the Dancing Bug collection aims to reprint 35 years' worth of strips in one comprehensive set.

“With the announcement of these two volumes, The Complete Tom the Dancing Bug program will soon stand as a full eight-volume chronicle of 35 years of comics – my life’s work,” said Bolling in a statement. “I’m grateful to Clover Press for its commitment to the project. The quality of the books has been extraordinary, and I’m honored to have this complete set in print. These two volumes will document this strip’s earliest years, and in some ways, my most audacious and ambitious work.”

The Kickstarter campaign for Tom the Dancing Bug is live now.
