Madhouse Comics Digest #7
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "Mr. Fix-It of the Space World," Ruby, Emerald, and Sapphire—three gemstone-powered villains—leverage their indestructible forms to outmatch the Union of Super Heroes, whose attacks prove futile against their diamond-hard bodies. When Carborundum Man arrives, he doesn’t rely on strength but on a clever psychological tactic to turn the tide, culminating in a surprising proposal to Sapphire. The story, illustrated with bold, dynamic lines by Bill Kresse and presented in a striking cover by Dan DeCarlo, showcases a playful yet clever twist on classic superhero dynamics.
In "The Lanolites," three aliens from the planet Lanolin land on Earth convinced their mathematical formula can explain every mystery—until their secretary, Alrauna, stumbles upon the unpredictable nature of love, throwing their rational worldview into delightful chaos.
In "The Diamond Demon," the gemstone-powered trio of Ruby, Emerald, and Sapphire use their indestructible forms to outwit the Union of Super Heroes, proving that even the toughest heroes can’t crack their criminal schemes. When Carborundum Man steps in—defeating the male villains not with force, but with a clever psychological ploy—he ends the story with an unexpected proposal to Sapphire.
In "Everything Happens in Transylvania," a trio of delightfully absurd cartoons from Madhouse Comics Digest #7 (1981) delivers pure, offbeat humor with a touch of the surreal—watch a woman add a mustache to a portrait, two theatergoers battle for hat supremacy, and a group of children get an unexpectedly thorough cleaning.
In "The Trend Setters," Fran the Fan’s obsession with the Archies threatens to derail their surprise appearance at the Ma-ads concert, forcing the band to think fast to slip past a crowd eager to claim their memorabilia. Written by an unknown author and illustrated by an unknown artist, the story captures the chaotic energy of fandom with a playful, fast-paced twist.
