“Slight Boo Boo”

In "Slight Boo Boo," Space Mouse finds himself stranded on the planet Nothing—a seemingly empty sphere that hides a secret: the Caution People, a society paralyzed by fear of even the smallest risks. Drawn by John Carey in both interior and cover art, this 1961 Dell comic delivers a quirky, imaginative twist on a classic sci-fi premise, all in a 15-cent package.
