THE ADVENTURES OF FAT FREDDY'S CAT #3 COMIC BOOK
Gilbert Shelton's Fabulous Furry Freak Brothers have ruled the Underground Comix scene since their first appearance more than 35 years ago. FAT FREDDY'S CAT in his own solo adventures in this comic book!
Fat Freddy is one of the Fabulous Furry Freak Brothers, a trio of lovable, comic hippies. Since Fat Freddy and the gang are always in trouble, his cat is apt to feel neglected. As a result, Fat Freddy’s Cat become something like a hilariously evil version of Garfield. FFC habitually gets into trouble, soils the apartment, and loves nothing more than sinking his claws into Fat Freddy’s waterbed.
First appearing as a tiny second feature squeezed into the bottom of Fabulous Furry Freak Brothers newspaper strips, Fat Freddy’s Cat was eventually enlarged and collected into this series of comic books. Although it was distributed primarily through head shops and other underground outlets, it nevertheless went on to become a remarkably popular comic.
Fat Freddy’s Cat # 3 features what I believe is one of Shelton’s best storylines for our feline friend - "Animal Camp." Fat Freddy’s Cat is sent to a "pet resort" only to learn it’s a fiendish extermination camp for helpless animals. Great story!
