Bogbrush the Barbarian

(4) 4-6 Illustrated by Bill Slavin. Unfortunately named and dimwitted protagonist Bogbrush sets off atop his extra-small steed on a goofy quest to seek his fortune. The story's humor is very broad, with constant references to Bogbrush's ineptitude. Action, violence, and silliness are all mixed together in the text, frequently interrupted by sidebars and cartoony black-and-white spot art.
