U-Comix #9
A pair of perpetually broke brothers, kicked out of yet another apartment and fed up with life in their VW van, make a wild leap: they buy a rusted 1938 Phutney Creech Land Yacht, restore it with stubborn heart, and turn it into a cross-country "people's bus line" — all for the price of a single ticket on the $29.95 SF to NYC Non-Stop Whiteline Cannonball Express.
In "Plötzlicher Tod," unemployed dreamer Philbert Desanex finds an unlikely path to glory when he’s recruited by the absurdly named Muthalode Bungers to play professional football—only to discover the sport is as ridiculous as it is dangerous. With deadpan satire and over-the-top spectacle, the story skewers the cult of athletic fame through a bizarre, high-stakes game where the rules are as unpredictable as the players.
