Sunday Funnies: "Best Side Story" from Not Brand Echh #6

It's been a Marvel-ous weekend so far, so why stop now, right Groove-ophiles? It's time for another look at Marvel's superhero satire mag, Not Brand Echh! This time, Gary Friedrich and Tom Sutton not only skewer both Marvel and DC's superheroes, but poke fun at the classic film, West Side Story, as well! JUST IMAGINE! Wotta Woman as "Maria"! Dr. Deranged as "Tony"! The Marble Heroes as "the Jets"! The Echhs (aka Dee Cee) Heroes as "the Sharks"! Guest appearances by Leonardo Burnedstein and Wild An' Willy Shakespeare! All this and song parodies, too! From Not Brand Echh #6 (November 1967), here's the most hysterical comicbook musical ever..."Best Side Story!"
