Touché Turtle

Touché Turtle made the leap from animated Saturday mornings to the printed page in 1970, debuting in Charlton's The Jetsons #1 courtesy of Joe Gill and Ray Dirgo — a Silver Age curiosity that placed this Hanna-Barbera fan favorite in delightfully eclectic company alongside the likes of Yogi Bear, Quick Draw McGraw, Boo Boo Bear, and Pebbles Flintstone across titles like Hanna-Barbera Parade and The Flintstones. With only a handful of catalog appearances across a publishing run that stretched into the mid-seventies, Touché Turtle is a genuine rarity, and collectors will be pleased to know that at least one of those appearances carries key-issue status. For fans of the golden era of Hanna-Barbera comics, this charming turtle is a wonderfully nostalgic find worth tracking down.
