Wiley & Grampa's Creature Features series.
A giant hairball from space deposits aliens in Gingham County. Their mission: to brainwash grannies into making home-cooked meals (with people as ingredients) for the aliens' leader, a food-crazed cross between Elvis and Jabba the Hutt. The silly and clever story features plenty of gross-out humor, puns, and visual jokes in the black-and-white illustrations.
