The art in this book is *spectacular*, styled a bit like those ultra-busy #AlJaffee *#MADMagazine* spreads, or the #MossEisleyCantina, or the wild alien scenes from #BenHatke's YA classic #ZitaTheSpaceGirl kids' graphic novels:

But *Justice Warriors* is grosser, busier, and more frenetic than any of them. As Bors describes it, they created "a chaotic mutant-infested city that tops the most sensory-overloading cities in all of comics and animation."

I was 8 years old in 1958 and had a subscription to Mad Magazine. I went to a Cub Scout father/son dinner where the featured speaker ripped off a recent Mad parody saying that Pravda (Soviet newspaper) had said the Boy Scouts were a fascist organization.
