Fawcett's Funny Animals #44

Fawcett's Funny Animals #44 hits its November 1946 stride with a wonderfully energetic cover by Chad Grothkopf, showing Hoppy the Marvel Bunny — billed right on the cover as "The World's Mightiest Flying Cottontail" — rocketing through the sky with jets blazing, towing a string of animal pals behind him while a tiny horse and rider look on from below. The whole scene bursts with the cheerful chaos that made Fawcett's anthropomorphic anthology such a delight for young readers of the era. At just a dime, this Approved Reading issue also promises thrills, laughs, contributions from "many others," and a short story by Uncle Don — plenty of fun packed into one bright yellow package.
