Wonder Wart-Hog, Captain Crud & Other Super Stuff

A satirical one-shot from 1967, Wonder Wart-Hog, Captain Crud & Other Super Stuff was a Gold Medal Books original that lampooned the superhero genre with gleeful irreverence. Writer Joel Siegel and artist Hank Hinton teamed up to introduce the titular Wonder Wart-Hog, a porcine parody of the Man of Steel, alongside Captain Crud and other absurd heroes. This single issue stands as a time capsule of late-1960s counterculture humor, offering a crude, funny, and surprisingly influential spoof that predated the mainstream deconstruction of superheroes by decades.
