Sesame Street #1
This collection brings together the first issue of Ape Entertainment's Sesame Street Comics series, featuring classic characters like Big Bird, Elmo, and Oscar the Grouch in all-ages adventures. Cover E is a variant print edition of this comic, which adapts the beloved educational television show into sequential art format for young readers and collectors alike.
In "How to Read a Comic, Part 1," Oscar the Grouch and Prairie Dawn team up to track down a mysterious stink that’s driving Prairie Dawn wild—though Oscar finds it utterly delightful. What they discover is a laundry basket full of wet socks Telly Monster found at the laundromat, which Oscar promptly hangs out to dry, savoring every pungent moment. Written by Paul Morrissey and illustrated by Scott Underwood, with colors by Dustin Evans and letters by Jay Fosgitt, the cover by Amy Mebberson captures the silliness perfectly.
In "The Anatomy of a Hero," Elmo dreams of being a superhero like Super Grover, convinced he can’t be one without superpowers. But when Super Grover shows him that real heroism is found in everyday acts of kindness and courage—like helping a friend or standing up for someone in need—Elmo begins to see that anyone, even a red monster with no cape, can make a difference.
Prairie Dawn’s cardboard castle stands tall on the Sesame Street yard, a fortress of imagination. Mr. Snuffleupagus looms nearby, playfully pretending to be a dragon, and Prairie Dawn’s eyes widen with just the right mix of pretend fear and delight.
In "A Dip in the Galaxy," Cookie Monster dreams of space travel with a sweet twist: imagining the Moon as a colossal cookie he can dip into the Milky Way. With playful imagination and a hunger for cosmic treats, he sets off on a whimsical journey through the stars—where the galaxy itself becomes his snack.
