Alvin #24

This cheerful 1972 Dell issue finds Alvin perched on a wooden dock, fishing rod in hand and clearly startled, as an enormous grinning fish looms up from the water right beside him — looking far more confident about the encounter than he does. Simon and Theodore watch wide-eyed from behind, their own fishing lines dangling uselessly while the real action unfolds. With a story titled "Water on the Brain," this lighthearted outing promises exactly the kind of slapstick chipmunk chaos that made Dell's Alvin comics such fun for young readers.
