National Lampoon Tenth Anniversary Anthology 1970-1980 #[nn]
"Tarzan of the Cows" is a satirical twist on mythic destiny, where Jehovah’s attempt to repeat the Jesus story takes a bizarre turn when Bennie David becomes the Son-o'-God after an accidental exclamation. Written by Sean Kelly and illustrated with sharp, expressive detail by Neal Adams, this standout story from the National Lampoon Tenth Anniversary Anthology blends absurdist humor with a surreal take on divine selection. The cover by Neal Adams complements the story’s irreverent tone, making it a memorable entry in the anthology’s 1979 collection.
