GARBAGE PAIL KIDS: MAD MIKE AND THE QUEST FOR STALE GUM

I find this a weird nostalgia bait thing. Like… Kids cared a little bit about this back in the 80s, and it even got a really crap movie because of the success of the cards, but I dunno if all that many people really look back that fondly on Garbage Pail Kids, beyond it being a product of its time.
