Buzzy #1 arrives in Winter 1944 as DC's answer to the teen-comedy craze, promising "the rib-tickling misadventures of America's favorite teenster!" George Storm's cover sets the tone perfectly: Buzzy blasts away on his trumpet while a girl in a green dress leans in to comment that daddy — a portly, top-hatted gentleman who is enthusiastically dancing rather than covering his ears — must be "a bit off the beam" for actually enjoying the racket. It's a warm, funny snapshot of postwar teen life that makes it easy to see why this series earned its own title.
