A Date with Judy #18
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "The Strange Case Of...", Melvin’s simple nap takes a turn when he’s mistaken for ill and abandoned by Dora, sparking a chain reaction of rumors that spreads through the neighborhood like wildfire. With no one to set the record straight, the Foster house quickly becomes a hub of concerned neighbors, all convinced a major family crisis is unfolding—while Melvin just wants a quiet rest. Art by Graham Place brings the quiet chaos of small-town gossip to life in this 1950 DC gem.
In "null," Melvin’s brief nap takes a hilarious turn when a single misheard remark sets off a chain reaction of gossip. When Judy quietly mentions she’s going to Oogie’s, the Pringles leap to the wrong conclusion, and soon the entire neighborhood believes Melvin and Dora have split—leading to a flood of concerned neighbors swarming the Foster home.
In "null," Judy sets her sights on making Tootsie look less than her best by orchestrating a surprise come-as-you-are party—just as Tootsie’s hair is still drying from a wash. With a mischievous plan in motion, Judy’s antics set the stage for a lighthearted clash of personalities, all in the spirit of teenage fun.
