* StillbornFranchise: The initial run of the comics only lasted three issues, with the Marvel run only lasting a meager one issue. Per word of Spumco employee Stephen Worth, it was a Catch 22 situation that killed the series early; comic book stores were the wrong market for funny comics, since readers were mostly interested in superhero comics instead of the gag oriented stories, so the comics inevitably sold poorly, and they couldn't get regular book stores to stock their comic books either due to the vulgar and lurid adult themed content contained inside. On top of that, the oversized format of the comic, along with the fact that it was printed on expensive pulp paper, made each issue a very expensive 6$, further scaring off potential buyers.
