Boys' and Girls' March of Comics #88
In "Roughing It Can Be Rough," Tom’s bold escape from the monotony of home life takes an unexpected turn when Jerry and Tuffy stow away in his lumber jacket, turning his wilderness adventure into a hilariously grueling trek. With Harvey Eisenberg handling art, inks, and lettering, and Carl Buettner’s cover capturing the chaos in vivid detail, this 1952 Western Publishing gem delivers a classic, offbeat twist on the great outdoors.
