Buzzy #24

A winter ice-skating outing goes hilariously sideways on this charming 1949 DC cover, as Buzzy tumbles spectacularly across the ice — stars flying — while his date, blissfully oblivious, gushes that he skates "so smoothly." The gap between her compliment and the comic chaos unfolding beneath her is perfectly timed, capturing the lighthearted humor that made Buzzy a beloved teen comedy title of the era. At 52 pages for a dime, this March/April issue offers a generous slice of mid-century slice-of-life fun.
