"Roman Around" brings a delightfully absurd twist to the antics of Wolfie and Peter, as a lab mishap sends them hurtling through time to ancient Rome—where their modern-day wits are put to the test against gladiators and imperial intrigue. Written by Sy Reit and brought to life with crisp, expressive art by Otto Feuer, this 1983 adventure blends slapstick humor with a splash of historical flair. The cover, a vibrant time-traveling spectacle by Sheldon Mayer, captures the chaos perfectly.
