Swing with Scooter #6

Apr 1967 · DC · 0.12 USD
“Hamlet and Eggs!”

In "Hamlet and Eggs!", the kids at school stage a wildly ambitious production of Shakespeare’s classic—complete with egg-based props and a surprisingly catchy score—to fund a statue for their beloved principal, Major Otis. With Jack Miller and Barbara Friedlander scripting the chaos, Joe Orlando’s art brings the absurdity to life, while Mike Esposito’s inks sharpen the humor and Joe Letterese’s lettering keeps the energy tight. The cover by Joe Orlando and Mike Esposito captures the silliness perfectly, all in a 12-cent 1967 package.
