Four Color #120

In "Flower Eater," young Alvin’s playful prank with a store mannequin’s head takes a wild turn when it ends up in Lulu’s father’s possession—leading to an unexpected arrest that throws the neighborhood into confusion. Written and drawn by John Stanley, with inks by Charles Hedinger, this 1946 Four Color comic captures a moment of innocent mischief spiraling into something far more complicated. The cover, also by John Stanley, perfectly frames the story’s quirky, offbeat tone.
