The Wondrous Wizard of Id

In this three-issue Gold Medal Books series from 1970, Brant Parker's art brings the medieval misadventures of the perpetually tyrannical Wizard of Id and his downtrodden subjects to life. A spin-off of the long-running newspaper strip, this short-lived comic book run captures the same sharp, satirical humor of courtly incompetence and human folly that made the strip a classic. It's a concise but charming glimpse into the world of Id, where the jokes land as quickly as the king's taxes.
