Camp Candy #5 brings the beloved comedy of John Candy's animated camp counselor to Marvel's all-ages lineup, and the cover — penciled by Howie Post — sets up a perfectly timed gag. A wide-eyed John Candy spreads his arms and pleads "Freeze, gang!" while three startled campers scramble behind him, all facing down a very unimpressed skunk at the trail's edge. With the teaser promising a look at John's own childhood camp days, this September 1990 issue looks like a genuinely fun read for fans of lighthearted outdoor misadventure.
