A new volume to add to the library:
Larson leaves the heavy lifting to 'Complete Far Side'
By Bob Minzesheimer, USA TODAY 
 Cartoonist Gary Larson calls his 20-pound opus a two-volume set that includes every Far Side cartoon in its 14-year twisted history "a hernia giver." But, he says, the heft has mostly to do with the quality of the glossy paper. "I don't think the cartoons weigh that much."
  
 The Complete Far Side (Andrews McMeel, $135) will be published today, nearly nine years after Larson retired as a daily cartoonist. Or, as he puts it, "I hung up my eraser, the most essential tool I owned."
