Welcome Back, Kotter - Vol 1 - #8 - 1977 - The Rubber Chicken Contract - (VG)

Welcome Back, Kotter #8, published in December 1977, is a classic example of DC’s "DC-TV" line, which adapted popular sitcoms into the comic book format during the late 70s. This issue, titled "The Rubber Chicken Contract," leans heavily into the slapstick, pun-filled humor that made the Sweathogs a cultural phenomenon.

The story follows Gabe Kotter and his infamous remedial class, the Sweathogs, as they stumble into a bizarre show-business "conspiracy" involving the staple of 70s prop comedy: the rubber chicken.
