☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "The Jet Setter," letter carrier Uriah faces his worst nightmare: a harrowing trek through the hills to deliver the Smith family’s mail, all while dreading the sudden, unpredictable arrival of Snuffy’s legendary dog, Bullet. Just when he thinks he’s made it safely to the mailbox, the tension ratchets up—because the real danger hasn’t passed. Written and illustrated by Fred Lasswell, this 1970 Charlton comic captures the quiet absurdity and rural suspense of the strip, with Lasswell’s distinctive art bringing every nervous glance and near-miss to life. The cover, also by Lasswell, perfectly captures the moment of impending chaos.
In "Jughaid Moves Up in the World," Jo's cautious mother, Loweezy, tries to keep him safe by banning treehouse plans in a tall tree—only to send him to a "small" one that proves far more treacherous than expected. The story unfolds with gentle humor as Jughaid’s ambition meets the unpredictable physics of a very small, very unstable tree.
In "Real Ferocious Dog," letter carrier Uriah faces his worst nightmare: a mail route haunted by Snuffy Smith’s legendary dog, Bullet. After braving the journey with nerves on edge, Uriah thinks he’s made it through unscathed—until he realizes the real danger hasn’t passed, just hidden.
In "Horse Cents," Barney Google comes back to Hootin' Holler eager to race his trusty horse Spark Plug, only to find Doc Pritchart ready to bet ten dollars on a showdown—his ancient car versus the horse. What unfolds is a perfectly timed, chaotic tangle of speed, luck, and stubborn pride that leaves both men in a tie that somehow feels like a win for everyone.
