In 1978, Bélier Press published "The Complete Fritz the Cat", which brought together all the published stories featuring Fritz, as well as previously unpublished drawings and unfinished comics. At the artist's request, a 10-page story drawn in 1964 and previously published in "R. Crumb's Comics and Stories" (Rip Off Press) in 1969 was excluded from this collection. In April 1993, Fantagraphics Books published "The Life & Death of Fritz the Cat", compiling nine major strips, including the 1964 story previously excluded from "The Complete Fritz the Cat". "Fritz the Cat" strips also appear in "The Complete Crumb Comics" series. An unpublished page featuring Fritz that had been intended for "Help!", as well as comics featuring other characters related to the anthropomorphic universe of "Fritz the Cat", appeared in "The R. Crumb Coffee Table Art Book" in 1998.
