Sweetie

Born in the pages of Leave It to Binky #4 back in 1948, Sweetie is a Golden Age charmer brought to life by the talented Bob Oksner — a creator celebrated for his light, expressive linework perfectly suited to the era's breezy humor comics. What makes Sweetie genuinely fascinating to collectors is the sheer stretch of their comics presence: a journey spanning over seven decades, from the Golden Age all the way to 2020, with appearances turning up in titles as unexpected as Savage Dragon alongside a colorful cast including Fatso, Fisty, Maybelle, and Rollo. With a key issue already to their name and a catalog footprint that quietly crosses publisher lines, Sweetie is exactly the kind of delightful discovery that rewards the curious reader digging deeper than the headlines.
