Sleazy Scandals of the Silver Screen

    (Cartoonists Co-Op, 1974, 1978, 1993)
™ and © Cartoonists Co-Op Press

Rumors. Gossip. Scandals! Face it, when celebrities make headlines, we want to know it all, and the worse the news, the better! And though today’s Hollywood seems to be bursting with drugs, sex scandals, and even murder, the stars of yesteryear had more than their fair share of trouble.

From the rape/murder trial of silent screen star Fatty Arbuckle, to the shameless behavior of stage and screen legend Tallulah Bankhead, to the mysterious murder of director William Desmond Taylor, this comic generously mixes fact and rumor with outright fabrication to titillate fans. You can forget about any new scoops about Marilyn Monroe, though, despite the juicy pin-up on the cover… it’s just an eye-grabber to get you to lay down the cash.
