Knockout #3 July 1971

In "Trouble At a Boating Pool ... Who is Going To Look a Fool?", a Highland warrior’s attempt to wield a forest log as a caber takes a delightfully surreal turn when it transforms into a giant toffee apple, apple tree, and ice lolly—much to the dismay of a skeptical boy who warned him. A whimsical, offbeat tale from 1971, this issue of Knockout features bold, playful colors, with yellow used prominently, and is a standout example of the era’s quirky, imaginative storytelling.
