Patty Penguin

Patty Penguin is a cartoon penguin character from the Walter Lantz animated universe, appearing in Dell Comics funny-book adaptations alongside familiar Lantz characters such as Chilly Willy, Andy Panda, and Woody Woodpecker.

Debuting in 1956 through Dell Comics, Patty Penguin is a charming piece of the Walter Lantz animated universe translated onto the funny-book page — a Golden Age creation by John Carey who found a cozy home among some of the era's most beloved cartoon characters. Over nearly two decades, Patty turned up across titles like Walter Lantz Andy Panda, Walter Lantz Woody Woodpecker, and the beloved Golden Comics Digest, sharing panels with the likes of Chilly Willy, Andy Panda, and Homer and Carrie Pigeon. With only eleven catalogued appearances, she's the kind of delightful rarity that makes digging through Dell's colorful funny-animal output such a rewarding adventure for collectors who love the warm, lighthearted world Walter Lantz built beyond the big screen.
