Hägar the Horrible #3 (12105)

Dik Browne's lovable Viking lunkhead is back in this third "On the Loose" collection from Tempo Books, promising "more good clean fun from America's favorite barbarian!" The cover says it all — Hägar himself is shown half-buried and flailing in a snowdrift, his horned helmet askew and his shaggy red mane the only burst of color against all that white. For 95 cents in 1975, this pocket-sized paperback delivers a heap of Browne's wonderfully loose, expressive cartooning and the gentle absurdist humor that made Hägar a household name.
