About the series
G. B. Trudeau, the creator of Doonesbury, spun off its most unhinged character—the perpetually scheming, drug-fueled former journalist and diplomat Uncle Duke—into his own comic series for Andrews McMeel in 1992. This single-issue publication, titled Action Figure! The Adventures of Doonesbury's Uncle Duke, is a satirical, standalone romp that distills the character's chaotic, Hunter S. Thompson-inspired misadventures into a concentrated dose of political and pop-culture parody. It's a must-read for Doonesbury completists and anyone curious to see Trudeau's sharp wit applied to an antihero who gleefully defies all decorum.
