Hunk #2
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeThis issue contains two main stories. The first follows Hunk, a prehistoric boy who attempts to acquire a bone and a chariot, pursuing sunflowers across a river and flying from a mountain before being chased away by giants. The second story features a witch who agrees to help a banana character gather items for the afternoon, leading her to a "Brooms' Club House" where she discovers broomsticks being used for recreation rather than work, concluding with her philosophical acceptance of this unconventional use of broomsticks.
When Hunk's dinosaur falls mysteriously ill, he'll stop at nothing to find a cure—even if it means crossing an uncrossable river, consulting a mysterious sage, and dealing with a con artist peddling magic elixirs. This lighthearted adventure from 1961 is packed with slapstick mishaps, outlandish schemes, and the kind of earnest determination that makes heroes (and their prehistoric pals) unforgettable.
When Wilma Witch returns home exhausted from shopping, her faithful broom Broomy volunteers to tackle all the housework—and then some, attacking chores with surprising enthusiasm and energy. As the industrious broom takes on kitchen cleaning, yard work, and pest control, Wilma begins to wonder just what's gotten into her magical helper, especially when Broomy's reward request leads to a surprising discovery in the woods.
When a young artist named Hunk shows Cecil his portrait of his dinosaur, Cecil immediately questions why the painting looks nothing like the real thing. Hunk launches into an elaborate explanation of artistic vision and creative choices—each excuse more inventive than the last—as he tries to convince Cecil that his wildly exaggerated portrait is actually a masterpiece. By the time Hunk finishes defending his work, he discovers that others have come to admire it, only to have a surprising realization about what real artistic suffering actually means.
