Scooby-Doo #88

Scooby-Doo #88 promises to be "Bolder! Scarier! And Tastier Than Ever!" — and the cover by Robert Pope and Dave Hunt delivers on all three counts, showing Shaggy roasting a hot dog and marshmallows over a candelabra while Velma holds the golden fixture aloft and a wide-eyed Scooby-Doo peers out from behind them. It's a wonderfully silly snapshot of Mystery Inc.'s priorities, pairing genuine spookiness with the gang's never-ending appetite. Writer John Rozum and artist Joe Staton bring their talents to "Unbelievable Beast!" — a title that suggests the creature-of-the-week is something truly out of the ordinary for this 2004 DC adventure.
