“Herbert Crawley, Armageddon M.D.”

In "Herbert Crawley, Armageddon M.D.," writer Tod Carroll and artist Cliff Jew deliver a sharp, surreal satire set in a world teetering on the edge of nuclear chaos. When Xico "X" is picked up by a cop en route to Moscow, the sudden detonation of an atomic bomb forces a tense game of survival—where fixing the officer’s car becomes a matter of staying alive and unseen. The story’s offbeat tone and striking visuals, courtesy of Cliff Jew’s distinctive art, make this a standout in the National Lampoon’s irreverent catalog.
