GUMBY SUMMER FUN SPECIAL #1 COMIC BOOK ART ADAMS VINTAGE POKEY ART CLOKEY RARE!!

GUMBY SUMMER FUN SPECIAL #1 Comic Book

published by COMICO in 1987. 1988 Will Eisner Comic Industry Awards - Winner - Best Single Issue: (Bub Burden and Art Adams [Comico])

Gumby’s Summer Fun Special is a lot of fun. Really. Despite being based on the green clay U.S. children’s character. Gumby and Pokey, his orange horse chum, some children and a baby-sitting werewolf get mixed up with hysterical aliens (bad guys) and space bears (good guys), a group of nice pirates and a crazy town where it’s permanently Hallowe’en. Bob Burden’s script is minimal and funny, with the plot always on the brink of coming apart at the seams. The fact that he manages to keep all the plates in the air makes for manic fun, while Art Adams’ detailed artwork is always a joy.

The book can be appreciated on two levels: a charming story featuring Gumby (the popular Claymation character created by Art Clokey), and an absurd romp through pop culture with crisp, clean art by Arthur Adams.

Highly Recommended!

GUMBY 3-D #1 COMIC BOOK VINTAGE POKEY ART CLOKEY CLAY PLAYMATION ANIMATED RARE!!

GUMBY 3-D #1 Comic Book

The grinning, green, flexible, and utterly oblong Gumby has been a Saturday morning cartoon fixture in a series of “playmation” adventures and a perennially popular toy for young kids of either gender for many years, so why not a comic book character in his own fun-filled, 3-D adventure series?

Kids can follow the lighthearted stories of Gumby and his horse Pokey as they explore storybook worlds, outer space, prehistoric jungles filled with dinosaurs, and every other imaginary landscape in the realm of childhood fantasy and imagination. Pop-out 3-D glasses bring the action to life by giving depth to the two-tone printing.

GUMBY COMIC BOOK POKEY ART CLOKEY BOB BURDON RICK GEARY ANIMATION CLAY RARE OOP!

GUMBY Comic Book

The fantastic stories of the clay-boy Gumby and his pal Pokey the pony are brought to life in Bob Burden and Rick Geary’s book Gumby. Re-creating the adorable, whimsical world created by Art Clokey that was first introduced in 1956, the series brings new tales to life as Gumby explores, makes new friends, and finds himself embroiled in adventures. Always determined to do his best, Gumby prevails against a number of different adversities, from bullies, to robbers, to fires, and provides simple morals and a good example for the youngest of readers.

Bob Burden and Rick Geary once again take the reader deep into Gumby's world, as only these two can. This time, Gumby hops a ride with some hobo's in search of his pal Pokey, only to land smack dab in the middle of "The Town With No Fun!" It is a guaranteed great time for everyone, young and old.

GUMBY WINTER FUN SPECIAL #1 COMIC BOOK ART ADAMS VINTAGE POKEY ART CLOKEY RARE!!

GUMBY WINTER FUN SPECIAL #1 Comic Book

In Hell the damned are subjected to 72-hour Karen Valentine film festivals, a twenty-year Hee-Haw retrospective and pop songs from the 1970s such as “Muskrat Love.” These are only some of the surprising bits of satire to be found in Gumby’s Winter Fun Special, a genuinely funny book that features Gumby and Pokey on a mission to the Underworld with the Mole People to rescue Santa Claus. Santa has been sentenced to Hell due to a bureaucratic glitch. In another unique twist, the Mole People know Santa as Ray Crabbe, his headquarters are in Morocco, and he looks a whole lot like Sean Connery. Nevertheless, he is quite a catch for Beelzebub, or as Gumby refers to him, Mr. Bub.

The book can be appreciated on two levels: a charming story featuring Gumby (the popular Claymation character created by Art Clokey), and an absurd romp through pop culture with crisp, clean art by Arthur Adams.
