Famous Funnies #55

In "Napoleon Goes Skiing," a whimsical twist on the classic adventure strip, the ever-resourceful Hawk and Bull find themselves chasing a mysterious plane dropping gold into the desert—only to uncover a hidden gang of Mexican smugglers in the process. Penciled and inked by Russell Keaton, with writing by Dick Calkins, this 1939 installment blends humor and intrigue in a tale that’s as clever as it is action-packed. The cover, by Victor Pazmiño, captures the zany spirit of the story with a bold, expressive image that perfectly sets the tone for the escapade within.
