davemerrill...with Dr. Steve Brule? No, check THIS out, it's a comic book about CHECKS! Art by John "Cracked Magazine" Severin and text by the Federal Reserve Bank of NY!
Back when my brother and I were in middle school, our mom worked in the Community Schools office there, and she'd drive us home, so we had to hang out for an hour or so after school ended while her work finished up. Anyway in the school office there was a box, and in that box were some comic books, and I asked what the deal was, and I was told they were free educational comics and I could have 'em. So I took them all home. Most of them were Popeye Careers comics, but this one was the prize in the package, as far as I'm concerned. I love that great Severin art, half-realistic, half-cartoony, and while I don't know what a comic from 1971 is doing in a box of Popeye comics in 1983, I'm happy to have it and to share.
