Crazy Magazine #90

Marvel's humor magazine hits its stride with issue #90, featuring a gloriously absurd cover by Bob Larkin depicting a muscle-bound, clown-wigged barbarian parody standing triumphant over a pile of junk and rats, sword planted at his feet, with a disheveled Miss Piggy-like figure sprawled nearby — all promising a savage send-up of Conan the Barbarian. The cover copy cheekily credits "Crom" before admitting it's actually the work of Kupperberg & Camp, setting the comedic tone for a packed September 1982 issue that also promises Teen Hulk, Kinetic Kids, and Dirk McGirk. If you enjoy sharp, self-aware parody humor delivered with genuine craft, this one delivers the goods.
