Funny Stuff #31

This cheerful DC anthology from 1948 packs a full 52 pages of cartoon fun into one thin dime, spotlighting the duo of the Dodo and the Frog. Otto Feuer's cover art captures the pair mid-ski-slope chaos — a wide-eyed, polka-dotted Frog has gone horizontal and is dangling off a steep snowy precipice, tethered by ropes to the Dodo, who careens downhill on yellow skis with his red scarf flying and an expression caught somewhere between determination and alarm. It's a wonderfully silly winter scene that sets a warm, lighthearted tone for everything inside.
