Four Color #358

Walter Lantz's beloved Andy Panda takes center stage on this cheerful 1951 Dell offering, where the little panda and a rooster companion find themselves in a hilariously chaotic canoe mishap — paddles flailing, water splashing, and fish scattering as their boat tips wildly beneath them. The cover art, penciled and inked by Dan Gormley, captures that perfect slapstick energy that made Lantz's characters so endearing. A delightful ten-cent slice of mid-century funny animal comics that holds up as a warm snapshot of the era.
