Ok, so I've never been a full-on 3 Stooges fan, although I one of our first three VHS cassettes that we bought when I was 10 years old was a collection of 3 Stooges shorts (the other two, you ask? A collection of Popeye cartoons, and a collection of Bugs Bunny cartoons). These stories are basically the exact tone of the original shorts, put to page and illustration. It's genuinely hard to tell if these are reprints of the original comics, or if they're all-new, but that should give an indication of the tone and artwork. Interspersed with the comics are reprints of the covers from the original comics, giving a bit of context and real-life to the Stooges themselves.
