FLASHBACKS: Twenty-Five Years of Doonesbury by G.B. Trudeau (Andrews & McMeel: $18.95; 331 pp., paperback original). Since its debut in 1970, “Doonesbury” has developed into one of the most significant strips in the history of comics: It was the first daily strip to win a Pulitzer Prize for editorial cartooning. The 800-odd daily and Sunday strips in this anthology catalog the shifting tastes and concerns of the baby boom generation. With typical irreverence, Garry Trudeau includes unflattering comments from some of his favorite targets, including Dan Quayle, Donald Trump, Marlin Fitzwater and George Bush.
