Dodo

Dodo is a Golden Age funny-animal character who debuted in DC's humor anthology Funny Stuff, sharing lighthearted adventures with companions like Fennimore Frog across a handful of titles in the late 1940s and early 1950s.

A charming little relic of DC's Golden Age funny-animal heyday, Dodo made their debut in Funny Stuff #45 in 1949, brought to life by creator Otto Feuer. With a brief but cheerful run stretching into the early 1950s, this pint-sized character popped up across a surprisingly eclectic mix of titles — from the lighthearted pages of Funny Stuff to the wilder terrain of Dale Evans Comics and Danger Trail — sharing adventures alongside the likes of Fennimore Frog. A modest five appearances in the catalog makes Dodo a genuine collector's curiosity, the kind of obscure Golden Age gem that reminds us just how wonderfully wide and weird DC's early publishing world really was.
