Dog Man: Grime and Punishment Fore-Foreword, Foreword, and Chapters 1-4 Summary & Analysis

Fore-Foreword Summary: “George and Harold: Celebrities at Large”

Police are called to a mall where George and Harold have set up a stall to sell their comic books; instead of arresting them or moving them on for selling goods illegally, the police read the comics and find them hilarious. They tell members of the public about the comics; crowds flood to the mall to buy and read them.

Foreword Summary: “Our Story Thus Far”

Everything from here on is from George and Harold’s Dog Man comic:

A policeman and his police dog are involved in an explosion that severely injures the policeman’s head and the dog’s body. A surgery is performed where the dog’s head is attached to the man’s body; he became known as Dog Man. Dog Man fought crime; in particular, one of his main nemeses was Petey the evil cat. Fortunately, Petey found love and became good. A panel depicts Petey being hugged by many people; it is suggested that Petey “may need a little help from his friends” to remain on the side of good (14).

Chapter 1 Summary: “Chief’s Big Day”

A splash panel depicts the Police Chief receiving an award from Mayor as his colleagues applaud enthusiastically. Mayor calls Dog Man to the stage to present the award to Chief.
