Funny Folks #20

DC's Hollywood Funny Folks #20 (June/July 1949) serves up a wonderfully zany cover by Rube Grossman, featuring Nutsy Squirrel gleefully stirring a large mixing bowl — while two red canisters labeled "Battery" on either side send wiggly electrical currents right into the concoction. The mischievous grin on Nutsy's face suggests this particular recipe is going to have quite a kick, and the bold yellow logo and stark black background give the whole scene a punchy, eye-catching energy. A fun ten-cent package of anthropomorphic humor from DC's golden age of funny-animal comics.
