Oddball (evil) friends Ape and Armadillo are in a fight; Ape thinks he always has to do the dirty work. Whichever side readers are on, they'll appreciate the pitch-perfect push-and-pull. Clear panel illustrations make the characters' imaginative scenarios easy to follow. Bonus comics appear below the main story, giving these (not very evil) child stand-ins more room to bicker--and make up.
