Captain Carrot and His Amazing Zoo Crew #5, completed 9/25/13



This issue is a brilliantly conceived parody of Indiana Jones. Here, the son of Oklahoma Bones seeks the Zoo Crews’ help in solving a centuries old mystery: Why are there Easter Eggs on Easter Egg Island? The main bad guys are “Ratzis” which you guessed it, are Nazi mice.

So far, this is the best issue in the entire series. True, I’ve only read 5 issues thus far, but this one is very smart. I don’t feel like an adult reading a kids book. It was like reading Watership Down or Animal Farm, just starring the Warner Bros. gang.

Worth Consuming.

Rating 10 out of 10 stars.
