THE DISPATCH
In Scooby-Doo Where Are You? #120, the gang is after a mysterious genie stealing antiques. In a second story, they find a zombie attacking a festival in New Orleans. Scooby fans will no doubt enjoy both stories, and each contain elements fairly typical of the standard Scooby-Doo story. There’s some educational bits for readers too, such as the first story giving the Arabic word for genie, “djinn”, explaining some of the history of the mythology behind genies. Also, some history buffs might find the names of the archeologists in the second story amusing, as they pay homage to famous explorers, Louis & Clark and David Livingston.
ART
The art in Scooby-Doo Where Are You? #120 is good, but there are times when the characters seem to be drawn in somewhat of a more abstract style, particularly in the first story. There is a great splash page in the second story, featuring the zombie. Overall, the art is decent in both, but the art in the second story reflects the more traditional Scooby-Doo art better.
FINAL THOUGHTS
Both stories in Scooby-Doo Where Are You? #120 are very entertaining that both young and seasoned readers will enjoy if they are Scooby fans. The typical Scooby-style humor is sure to put a smile on the faces of Scooby fans everywhere, such as Shaggy and Scooby playing in a brass band with the zombie. All in all, this is another Scooby adventure that diehard fans will love.
