Mr. Monster's Super Duper Special
Eclipse · 1986–1987 · 8 issues
About the series
A gleefully chaotic anthology series from Eclipse Comics, Mr. Monster's Super Duper Special ran for eight issues between 1986 and 1987, serving as a showcase for the wild, grotesque humor of Basil Wolverton and the energetic storytelling of Michael T. Gilbert and Catherine Yronwode. The title character—a bizarre, pulp-inspired hero—shared the pages with recurring oddities like Doc Stearn and Kelly Friday, all rendered in Wolverton's famously rubbery, knobby style and Gilbert's lively cartooning. It stands as a vital, offbeat relic of the 1980s indie boom, preserving the madcap spirit of pre-Code comics with a modern, self-aware twist.
