Archie's Madhouse #42
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "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.
In "Godfrey Gooch Space Hunter," the Earth Space Zoo’s director sends Godfrey Gooch on a mission to find exotic new creatures—only to discover that the rarest animal in the galaxy might just be him. After failing on several planets, Godfrey lands on the mysterious Planet X-305, where the wildlife is unlike anything he’s seen… and where he might be the odd one out in the most unexpected way.
In "The Mad Ad Monster," scientists unleash a miracle cure for bad breath, dandruff, and B.O.—only to watch in horror as their TV announcer gains bizarre powers after drinking it live on air. Now a chaotic force of satire, he sets out to destroy every commercial he can, turning the ad world upside down.
