“If Racketeers Took Over the Children's World”

In "If Racketeers Took Over the Children's World," Paul Laikin and Jack Davis reimagine classic 1950s TV shows—The Millionaire, Lassie, The Lineup, and others—through a satirical lens where organized crime has seized control of the children's entertainment landscape. With Jack Davis’s signature sharp wit and exaggerated visuals, the story flips beloved tropes into darkly humorous parodies, all rendered in his distinctive, inky style on both interior and cover.
