Ten years before the first Earth Day, Al Capp delighted readers with this wild environmental fable, and horrified Fearless Fosdick fans with a tragic tale in which the rock-jawed detective gets fired from the force. Also in this volume, Capp skewered th erich and famous with satires of Park Avenue plastic surgeons and high falutin' art collectors, and climaxed another hilarious year with a wild Sadie Hawkins Day in which the Dogpatch bachelors and the gals who pursue them run the whole race blindfolded! An in-depth introduction by Tom Inge (author of Comics as Culture), that looks at movies, humorists like Mark Twain and wild characters like Sut Lovingood to show what was Southern about Capp's acerbic satires.
