So it's gotta be something CODE-APPROVED (yeccchh!), right?
So I searched books from ACG, but can't still find it!
Arrrgghh.

does that mean that the comic is only posted on CB+, Nrarf?
If you recall the rules of the games "A small segment of the cover of the comic will be posted along with a word hint. ... The comic will always be one that is on DCM."

No Jim it is here not only on CB+ and the cover does not carry the code approval label in 1954 hope the info from a bald man helps.

Sorry, never seen this before.
And I don't know who the "bald man" is.
Why is Mark in the naughty chair - and not allowed to solve this mystery?

Because Mark has a cheat machine that allows him to get all the answers and not give anyone else a chance.
I can not give you much more of the cover without giving away the name. So if you check my picture in my avatar you can see who one of the bald men is and it was a clue as Bald is credited as the cover artist. I would say there are nearly 34 clues that I have given including exactly what comic it is.

Yes, I will.
How about a change of scenery?

I was really surprised that this took so long. The fun part was trying to come up with clues. Here are all the hints for those who may have missed them.

NOT ALLOWED=Forbidden

Tilliban may be having some difficulty because he is not from the USA= from ACG

nothing in the world=WORLD

not forbidden here and only on CB+. A long running title from a significant publisher=FORBIDDEN+

1954 hope the info from a bald

34 clues= issue 34

ah - I've never collected that publisher.  Neat cover!
Great choice Narf.  :)

I just read the story.  Nicely done.  The end was unexpected.

You're too good to us, Narf.
Showering us with clues.
Drowning us in clues.

Jim informs me via private mail that he already got my new riddle.
From the first clue, the old devil.
(That is no clue, people, just stating the facts)

For the rest of you, here's a second one.

I'll be offline for the next 20 hours or so.
On my way to Frankfurt where I'll be giving a comedic performance.

I leave you with clue #3.
A gentleman in dire distress.

Feel free to solve the mystery...
