Wonder Wart-Hog and the Nurds of November: Gilbert Shelton's Exciting Cartoon Novel of Election-Year Politics, International Nuclear Terror, Professional Football, Science Fiction, Motorcycle and Auto Racing, Pestilence, Famine, Economic Collapse #[nn]

This 1980 collection from Rip Off Press presents Gilbert Shelton's satirical Wonder Wart-Hog epic, a full-length cartoon novel that lampoons election-year politics, nuclear brinkmanship, professional football, and apocalyptic doom. Shelton's underground comix antihero, the porcine vigilante, careens through a plot stuffed with motorcycle racing, science fiction, and societal collapse, all rendered in the artist's signature manic style. The volume stands as a prime example of Shelton's biting, absurdist humor from the peak of the underground comix era.
