Great Fondoo

Stepping onto the Bronze Age comics scene in 1978, Great Fondoo made their debut in Laff-A-Lympics #1, the Marvel series that brought Hanna-Barbera's beloved animated universe to the printed page courtesy of writer Mark Evanier. With only a decade's worth of appearances, this is a character whose charm is concentrated and collectible, sharing panels with a wonderfully wild roster that includes Hong Kong Phooey, Yogi Bear, Dynomutt, Captain Caveman, and Taffy Dare. For fans who love the playful, anything-goes energy of late-'70s all-ages comics, Laff-A-Lympics is an absolute gem of its era — and Great Fondoo is one of those delightful deep-cut discoveries waiting for the right enthusiast to appreciate them.
