Alley Oop: The Adventures of a Time-Traveling Caveman #2

V. T. Hamlin's beloved time-traveling caveman gets a proper showcase in this 1991 Kitchen Sink Press collection, promising adventures that sweep "from the prehistoric jungles of Moo to ancient Egypt and beyond." The cover says it all: a muscular, club-toting Alley Oop — dressed in an improvised Egyptian headdress — stands in the desert sand, sizing up the great Sphinx with a wonderfully thoughtful expression, pyramids looming in the background. It's a charming snapshot of the strip's irresistible mix of prehistoric humor and historical globe-trotting, all rendered in Hamlin's warmly expressive hand.
