Skooter

Skooter is a teen comedy character from DC's postwar humor line, inhabiting a lighthearted slice-of-life world alongside fellow young characters like Binky Biggs and Peggy Baxter across DC's mid-century funny titles.

A product of DC's postwar funny-pages charm, Skooter made their debut in Scribbly #10 in 1950, courtesy of the wonderfully inventive Sheldon Mayer — a Golden Age pedigree that puts this character in genuinely distinguished company. Skooter's world is one of teen comedy and slice-of-life hijinks, turning up across DC's lighthearted titles like Leave It to Binky, Buzzy, and Scribbly, sharing pages with the likes of Binky Biggs, Peggy Baxter, and a whole cast of mid-century young characters. With five catalog appearances including one recognized key issue, Skooter is a rare and quietly collectible piece of DC's Golden Age humor tradition — the kind of find that reminds you just how rich and varied comics were beyond the capes and cowls.
