“The Forty-Year Old Hippie Talks to the Whales”
In "The Forty-Year Old Hippie Talks to the Whales," Gilbert Shelton delivers another delightfully surreal slice of countercultural oddity, with the artist and writer also handling inks and letters. When Fat Freddy's cat responds to the familiar clink of a can-opener, the moment takes a turn both absurd and oddly profound—only to be met with the unexpected sight of a fruit cocktail can.
