Indexer Notes

Back cover. © Eel O'Brian, Stosh Gillespie. Gillespie is Daniel Clowes and O'Brian is Mort Todd.

A pin-up of the Uggly Family feature that appeared in Cracked (Globe Communications, 1985 Series) from 1986 to 1989. Uncertain if this was meant to imply this feature would be published by Eternity or not. Possibly just some sort of of advertisement or promotion for the series that was running in Cracked.
