Rip Off Comix #3
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "E. Z. Wolf's Kangaroo Court," Wonder Wart-Hog returns to Earth after 68,823 years, having glimpsed his home from Uranus following its nuclear destruction. Now back on a restored planet, he encounters a second, larger, uglier, and less intelligent version of himself—setting up a bizarre and surreal confrontation. Written and illustrated by Gilbert Shelton, this 1978 classic from Rip Off Press features a wild, satirical edge, with a cover by Shelton and a team of artists including Ted Richards, Dave Sheridan, Fred Schrier, Harry Driggs, and Larry Rippee.
In "The Wings of Charley," a curious wanderer named Charley finds himself atop a towering construction crane, prompting an unlikely intervention from a reverend and a police officer who believe they’re rescuing him from peril—though Charley may have other plans. Written with sharp wit and a satirical edge, this seven-page gem from *Rip Off Comix #3* (1978) captures a moment of absurd tension with quiet, deadpan humor.
In "Return From the Planet of the Pigs," Wonder Wart-Hog, the absurdly heroic hog with super acute hog-vision, scans the cosmos from Uranus and spots Earth—68,823 years after its nuclear demise. After returning to a surprisingly revived planet, he’s stunned to meet a second, larger, uglier, and less intelligent version of himself.
