(2) K-3 Illustrated by Lane Smith. The Toad brothers have run amok through Drywater Gulch. Enter Sheriff Ryan. In a clever bit of reverse psychology, young Ryan snubs the Toad brothers by blaming the town's problems on a band of dinosaur hooligans. Smith's over-the-top goofy townspeople are a perfect partner for Shea's stylistic shenanigans; alongside the silliness Smith shows some serious skills with line work and hue.
