Swing with Scooter #6
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "Hamlet and Eggs!", the kids at school stage a wildly ambitious production of Shakespeare’s classic—complete with egg-based props and a surprisingly catchy score—to fund a statue for their beloved principal, Major Otis. With Jack Miller and Barbara Friedlander scripting the chaos, Joe Orlando’s art brings the absurdity to life, while Mike Esposito’s inks sharpen the humor and Joe Letterese’s lettering keeps the energy tight. The cover by Joe Orlando and Mike Esposito captures the silliness perfectly, all in a 12-cent 1967 package.
Scooter and his friends pitch a wild idea to raise funds for a statue of their principal, Major Orpheus Otis, by staging a school production of *Hamlet*—only to quickly abandon Shakespeare for a full-blown musical. With Sylvester leading the cast, Cynthia in charge of choreography, and Penny and Kenny adding their own brand of chaos, the show spirals into a hilarious, song-filled mess that’s as much about friendship as it is about theater.
Penny’s got her hands on a real magic coin with one wish, and she’s determined to use it to make Cookie see she’s serious about Scooter—though whether the coin will work or just complicate things further remains to be seen.
