Its a fun exercise to put something like this into comic book format. Its not like theres a huge cult following for this sort of thing. The most notable thing about the series is the fact that it established Dick Dastardly and Muttley, who showed-up in cartoons since then...but not really all that much in recent years.

How to take one of the greatest cartoons of the 60's and make it work for today's audience?
This isn't quite it, but it's a valient effort.
Penelope is the star of this issue with the other racers barely getting a mention or cameo other than Peter Perfect in the wackiest role ever as a President who never campaigned and won by write-in votes.
If this has any chance for it's intended market (I'm guessing children of the 60's like me) you need more Slag Brothers, Prof Pat Pending, Max, Sawtooth, Bubba Bear and especially Dastardly! (who did have a kind of storyline with how he and Muttley teamed-up that was was told behind the scenes).
The writing and story isn't too bad and the art is just above doable more
Needs more Wacky.
