Keywords: Mummy. Football. Museum. Escape. Victory. Practical joke.
Synopsis: A crowd is cheering for brilliant football player. A mummy
wakes up for cheering and collect his victory.
Comment: McKenzie's story is not successful, but it has got anyway
an interesting inside drive.
And if not fresh, but a different portrait of mummy's
day. Corben is in his best, in this small story, in rare face close-ups
(the lower parts of pg 1, 2, and 4). Figures in panels are too far and
small. Page 2 is more or less successful and harmonic.
