Four Color #1166

From 1961, this Dell Four Color entry brings Rocky the Flying Squirrel and his pals to life in a delightfully lively carousel scene. Rocky — sporting his trademark aviator helmet and goggles — soars above Bullwinkle the Moose, who takes up the center of the merry-go-round alongside a bespectacled dog and a grinning dark-haired figure riding the painted horses. Al Kilgore's cover art captures the cheerful spirit of the animated series perfectly, and the story "Short Wave Moose" promises plenty of the good-natured adventure that made this cast so endearing.
