The Adventures of Bob Hope #96

Dec 1965 · DC · 0.12 USD
“Super-Hip Flies Again”

In "Super-Hip Flies Again," Bob Hope enlists the help of psychiatrist Dr. F. Rutecake for his overly well-adjusted friend Tadwallader Jutefruice, leading to an unexpected turn when Bob urges Tadwallader to join the Benedict Arnold High School football team. When Badger Goldliver provokes him, Tadwallader’s frustration sparks a transformation into Super-Hip, unleashing a surreal showdown that ends with Badger turned into a waffle with maple syrup. Written by Arnold Drake and illustrated by Bob Oksner—whose dynamic art defines the issue’s zany tone—this 1965 DC classic blends absurd humor with a touch of superhero whimsy, all wrapped in a cover by Oksner that captures the moment’s chaotic energy.
