“Todd Tunes On to New Facts on VD”

"Todd Tunes On to New Facts on VD" is a sharp, satirical comic by Edward Sorel, written, drawn, and inked by the same hand, delivering a biting take on political and social hypocrisy in 1974. The story unfolds in a surreal, exaggerated world where national figures are caricatured with biting precision, as seen in a scene where Richard Nixon waves the flag while right-wing supporters parade, echoing his real-life rhetoric about "the great causes to which I have been dedicated..." — a moment that underscores the issue’s darkly comedic tone.
