Scooter

Scooter is a Silver Age DC teen character who debuted in G.I. Combat before headlining Swing with Scooter, a humor series following a British rock-and-roll singer navigating American high school life alongside friends including Cookie, Penny, Sylvester, Kenny, and Malibu.

Debuting in the pages of G.I. Combat #118 in 1966, Scooter is a Silver Age DC original who quickly found a home of their own — Swing with Scooter became the character's primary stage across a run that stretched a remarkable two decades. Created by Howard Liss and Jack Abel, Scooter shares their world with a lively cast including Cookie, Penny, Sylvester, Kenny, and Malibu, the kind of ensemble that gives a character real texture and staying power. The fact that Scooter later earned a spot in The Best of DC speaks to the fondness the publisher held for this creation — a genuine slice of Silver Age charm well worth seeking out for any collector with a taste for that era's breezy, colorful spirit.
