Josie #29
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "Tennis Anyone?", Josie finds herself caught in a bizarre sibling showdown when her brother Alex unleashes a fleet of remote-controlled toy soldiers and rockets on Albert. With Albert in danger, Alexandra fights back using an unexpected ally—a gorilla who, much to everyone’s surprise, develops a crush on Josie and takes out Albert with surprising finesse. Written by Frank Doyle and brought to life with Dan DeCarlo’s signature style—penciled by DeCarlo and inked by Rudy Lapick—this 1967 gem features a delightfully absurd battle of wits and whimsy, with the cover by Dan DeCarlo and Rudy Lapick capturing the chaos in vibrant detail.
Josie, Melody, and Pepper are desperate for a fourth for tennis—until Alexandra hatches a plan to trick her brother into stepping onto the court. What follows is a hilarious chain of escalating mishaps, as it becomes clear why everyone else has been running in terror.
In "Wild Thing," Josie's frustration with Albert's messy look sparks a full-on fashion overhaul by Pepper and Melody, who transform him into a sharply styled Carnaby Street sensation—complete with a look that declares, "If you're not London, you're lost!"
In "War Is Heck," Alex unleashes a toy army from his father’s factory to wage war on Albert, but Alexandra fights back with a surprisingly effective—though wildly unpredictable—weapon: a gorilla. When the beast takes a sudden interest in Josie and takes Albert out of commission, peace becomes the least predictable outcome.
