Description
"I'd been looking for a new way to deal with sex and love in comics, a way that would show the warmth, intimacy, humor, peculiarity, difficulty and uniqueness of people's close relations. Some way that would make readers care" ... The result of Reed Waller's search was the creation of Omaha, a creation that explores adult human relationships by placing them in a classic "funny animal" comics context. As Waller found out, readers DO care about the beautiful cat dancer and the people in her show more life. Now, for the first time, Reed Waller's and Kate Worley's Omaha is collected in a 128-page volume that relates the saga from the beginning. Included are the hard to find short pieces, three comic book-length stories, five all new pages done just for this volume, and a special Omaha gatefold! show lessTags

"Omaha is a spunky, sexy, cleanly drawn contemporary soap opera about the life and loves of a nude terpsichorean who happens to be a, er, uh, a cat. It is a magazine that has the religious right crazed. It is wonderful" - Harlan Ellison. I'll go along with that, although it has gotten a little dated in tone over the years.

At times, the story and characters are strong enough that the sexual content is secondary. During some scenes, it almost feels as though the author is thinking “oh, too many pages have gone by, time for some sex”. In other words, there’s more than one reason to read this comic.
