“The Tall Story”

In "The Tall Story," a 1945 Blue Beetle issue, Cuthbert’s attempt to bond with his kids at the circus takes a comically disastrous turn when overindulgence in junk food lands him in a hospital bed—leaving his son to lament, "Mom...we didn't see no circus!" Written by Hal George and illustrated by Al Zere, this quirky slice of postwar life features a memorable cover by E. C. Stoner.
