AVERAGE SCORE 10
"The Calvin Coolidge Story"? "Gotterdammerung" (a serious story about Adolf Hitler and the Nazis and it ain't no Maus)? A religious fable with Zippy in the 16th century? Oh, boy, what fun! At least S. Clay Wilson livens up the book with his contribution, and R. Crumb's "Crybaby's Blues" is pretty funny. I even like Jay Lynch's "Famous Frauds" story this time ("Ajeeb").
