Marvel's long-running humor magazine goes all-in on parody in this 1981 "Super Special" issue, spotlighting a mock product label for "Giant Green Clown Very Old Tough Biblets Sour Mash Corn" — complete with a leering, rotund green clown mascot that's equal parts unsettling and ridiculous. Gary Hallgren's cover art delivers a pitch-perfect sendup of grocery store branding, framed by promises of 80% new material, classic reprints, and a sheet of 15 full-color "Loony Labels" ready to cut out and stick on. With interior work by writer J. M. DeMatteis and artist/inker Tony Tallarico, this is a cheerfully deranged snapshot of early-'80s Marvel comedy at its most gleefully weird.
