Archie's Madhouse #42

Sep 1965 · Archie · 0.12 USD
“Godfrey Gooch Space Hunter”

In "Godfrey Gooch Space Hunter," Earth's Patrolman Dolan and Martian officer Moo Goo find themselves in a bizarre galactic prison after accidentally jaywalking in a distant star system—only to learn the offense carries a $5 fine. Their botched mission lands them in the unglamorous role of space dog catchers, all under the watchful eye of their exasperated commander. A 1965 gem from Archie's Madhouse, this zany sci-fi tale features art, inks, and letters by Joe Edwards, with a delightfully chaotic cover by Samm Schwartz and Dan DeCarlo.
