The Sound Of Funnies

DC has published a fair number of truly Odd books over the years. Some we're bound to get to since they came out a half century ago this year. But this morning, let's go to one of their most overtly odd titles for our Sunday Morning Funnies.

Even before it was released, they embraced the odd and made that the focus of the book - the advertising for the book slapped us in the face with it:


When Plop! finally did arrive, they took the time to explain the concept to the readers...


Now that you know what Plop! is, let's enjoy some toons from the book. (Ignore the liar above, just laugh along with Gregory)
