Description

Fish Police 16 Wrap-around cover by Steve Moncuse April 1989 For you young'uns in the audience, from the heyday of the anthropomorphic animal comics - the story centers Inspector Gill, a fish detective who, it is hinted at, had once been a human. Fish Police started in 1985 as a self-published black-and-white title by Moncuse through his own Fishwrap Productions. After 11 issues, the title was picked up by Comico in 1987. After issue #17, Comico went bankrupt. Fish Police was then acquired by Apple Press. The new series continued the numbering begun by Comico, but the comic reverted to black-and-white. Apple published the title until early 1991, when the run ended with number #26.

Fish Police was even made into a short lived 1992 animated TV series (Inspector Gil being voiced by John Ritter).

Alas, the show didn't have legs ;)

Awesome wraparound cover!
