The Three Stooges issues of Four Color (1942-1962 Dell 2nd Series) (#1043, 1078, 1127, 1170, and 1187) are the first 5 issues of this series, in Dell's reckoning. From their start in Vaudeville, the classic comedy team The Three Stooges made slapstick an art form. Just before the big football game between the Mudcats and Boll Weevils, the Stooges learn the Mudcats have been kidnapped by gangsters to fix the game. Inventor Professor Putter creates a robot janitor, but the robot just forces Professor Putter to do all the work. Curly Joe tries weightlifting to impress the girls, and accidentally knocks out a bank robber instead. Plus an ad for the "Three Stooges Magic Foto Fan Club." Bicycle Built for Boobs; Football Phonies; Professor Putter: Outsmarted Smarty; Barney Barnacle: The Haunted ; Biceps Battle; Roll Call; Genius at Work. 32 pages, Full Color. Cover price $0.15.
