Fat Albert

    (Gold Key, 1974-1979)
™ and © Western Publishing Company, Inc.

Hey, hey, hey! Comedian Bill Cosby told stories of various pals that he went to school with while growing up, but none became more notorious than his memories of his friend, Fat Albert. In this comedy, Cosby tells of the time Fat Albert got a hernia and knocked over three buildings! Comedy like this led to primetime specials in 1969 and 1971 and then a popular Saturday morning cartoon series by Filmation of which this comic book is based. The series dealt with many childhood issues in humorous and also in serious fashion and won many awards.
