Gay Comics #1
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeThe visible pages feature comedic stories including one involving Dopey Crane attempting to patch holes in his boots before catching cold, with assistance from another character who provides cardboard soles and later offers to motorize his broomstick. Another story shows a tortoise character involved in a narrative about a fairy queen costume for a Girl Scouts play, with dialogue referencing the tortoise being influenced by the fable of the tortoise and the hare. The comic employs anthropomorphic animal characters and slapstick humor typical of mid-1950s funny animal comics.
Teepee Tim watches a crane fish standing on one foot and decides to try the same trick—but when he switches to the other leg, his friend Grandma Numonya's prank sends him tumbling into the water! To explain the crane's unusual fishing stance, Grandma Numonya spins a tall tale about how the bird once bought boots to stay warm and dry, only to lose one in the mud during a fishing trip. Now you'll discover why that footless crane became so famous for standing on just one leg.
