Ten-panel comic strip. The comic strip characters Little Orphan Annie, Henry (as drawn by Carl Anderson), and Louie (as drawn by Harry Hanan) appear in the strip.
Approximate dating supplied by John Ashbery (June 2014).
One of two collaborative comic strips created by Ashbery and Brainard in the Morgan's collection. The other strip, "Diana & Buster," has been cataloged separately, with the accession number MA 22233.1. The two strips are housed in a single clamshell box.
In the same format as Ashbery and Brainard's collaborative comic strip "The Great Explosion Mystery," which was published in C Comics #2. "Dr. Fantod" was apparently never published (information supplied by David Kermani, June 2014).
