Plop! #18

DC's "Magazine of Weird Humor" delivers another gloriously unhinged installment with this December 1975 issue, cover by Basil Wolverton and Jack Adler. That cover says it all: a grotesque, hunched figure with clawed hands and a grimacing mouth crouches in a city canyon of towering skyscrapers, dollar bills and raindrops tumbling down around it — pure Wolverton grotesquerie at its most gleefully unsettling. Inside, Wally Wood handles writing, pencils, and inks for "Along Came the Elves," making this a remarkably concentrated showcase of one master cartoonist's vision.
