Go-Go #5

In this satirical 1967 gem from Go-Go #5, the absurdly named Bestest League of America springs into action with a swift capture of Badman and Robber, only to be interrupted by a citywide call for help that summons Green Trashcan to the Marvelous Super Heroes' office—where the real chaos begins.

Young Charlie Splurtz sits on his father's knee eager to hear tales of wartime heroics, and his old man obliges with a string of colorful war stories—enlisting despite a bad back, befriending ladies in London, strategizing with generals, and winning battles through sheer cunning and luck. This 1967 satire gleefully deflates the myth of the battle-scarred war hero, piling on absurdities as the father's tall tales grow taller. Fair warning: if you're expecting straightforward military drama, you're in for a comedic curveball instead.
