Friends of Maxx #3

A wonderfully absurdist cover from Sam Kieth greets you here: a weary-looking bison stands on a dusty plain against a backdrop of snow-capped mountains, while a small bird perched on its back unleashes an endless torrent of "yap yap yap" — met with the bison's magnificently deadpan reply, "Shut up Ira." Issue three of Friends of Maxx continues "Broadminded Part Two" under the Image mature-readers banner, and if this cover is any indication, the series keeps its sharp, offbeat humor firmly intact.
