The Mad House Glads #92
In "Of Protest and Praise," the boys grapple with their disillusionment in America following the Watergate scandal, channeling their frustrations into songs that question the system.

Written by Frank Doyle and illustrated by Dan DeCarlo, with inks by Rudy Lapick, colors by Barry Grossman, and letters by Bill Yoshida, this 1974 issue features a cover by Stan Goldberg and Jon D'Agostino.

The boys are writing songs about their disillusionment in America after Watergate. Mr. Didit objects to their negative attitude, but even he can't think of anything good to say after the Watergate scandal. But Fran argues that they should be positive about the American system of government and the way it exposes crooks in government.
