National Lampoon Magazine #59
In "Heil Love!", two down-on-their-luck tramps, Mr. Duck and Weevil, strike up a conversation with a wide-eyed young man eager to embrace the life of a vagabond—only to learn the hard way that hopping a moving freight train isn’t the easy escape he imagined. Written and illustrated by Bobby London in his singular, deadpan style, this satirical gem from National Lampoon Magazine #59 (1975) captures the absurdity of youthful idealism with sharp wit and dry humor. The cover, by Neil Selkirk, perfectly sets the tone with its offbeat, surreal energy.
