Bill & Ted's Excellent Comic Book #5

Marvel's 1992 Bill & Ted's Excellent Comic Book #5 — subtitled "Been Caught Cheating Time!" — finds Bill and Ted looking wide-eyed and thoroughly alarmed as a imposing robot judge looms over them, hourglass in hand, accusing the duo of "cheating time" while they protest with a emphatic "No Way!!" The telephone booth and a glimpse of a familiar bald companion in the corner round out Evan Dorkin's wonderfully expressive cover, which perfectly captures the duo's endearing mix of panic and innocence. If you've ever wanted to see history's most excellent slackers put on cosmic trial, this issue's cover promises exactly that kind of inspired absurdity.
