Four Color #1084
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "Bean Baggers," a 1960 Dell Four Color issue, Speedy’s lightning-fast runs stir up so much dust during a drought that the townspeople can no longer tolerate him—so they banish him from the village. Cover by Pete Alvarado, with interior art and inks also by Alvarado, the story follows the consequences when two bandidos exploit Speedy’s absence to trap the townspeople in the jail and ransack the village.
In "Do or Diet," Sylvester finds himself stranded in Siesta City, a place where cats have gone soft and lazy, too content to chase mice. When he tries to prove his worth by catching a few, he’s outmaneuvered at every turn by the surprisingly fast Speedy.
Speedy the raccoon loves showing off at the beach—until a shark puts his bravado to the test. Tomas Turtle comes to the rescue, and when the tide threatens the turtle family’s eggs, Speedy returns the favor in a moment of unexpected courage.
In "Watch My Dust," Speedy, a fast-running anthropomorphic rabbit, finds himself at odds with his drought-stricken town when his speed kicks up too much dust. When the townspeople demand he stop, he’s forced to leave—only for two bandidos to exploit his absence and trap the villagers while raiding the town.
In "Well Peppered," Rayo sets off on a city-bound mission to fetch a special kind of pepper for a feast the mayor is preparing for a wealthy guest, hoping to impress with a dish that’s as bold as the occasion.
Speedy’s madolin strings snap mid-song, leaving him in a bind—until he improvises with a cat’s whiskers. Now he’s got a new tune, but the furious feline’s hot on his tail, and the only thing keeping him ahead is sheer speed and a whole lot of luck.
