Bullwinkle #01-090-209
In "Matador Moose," Bullwinkle finds himself in a wild predicament when Boris, under Fearless Leader’s orders, sabotages a routine haircut into a high-speed chase involving a runaway subway train. With moose-hair at the center of a bizarre espionage plot, the usually bumbling moose narrowly escapes disaster—only to face a new twist when Boris unexpectedly stages a subway strike to keep him alive. Written by Al Kilgore and colored by the Western Publishing Production Shop, with full cover art by Al Kilgore, this 1962 Dell classic delivers classic cartoon chaos with a touch of absurd patriotism.
