In "Weak in the Trees," Boo Boo’s prank of posing as a baby bear backfires in the most unexpected way when a sudden river sweeps him and Yogi into a hidden valley—where the tables are turned and the grown Yogi is now the one treated like a child. Written by Vic Lockman and brought to life with expressive art by Harvey Eisenberg, this 1960 Dell comic features a clever twist on roles and size, all rendered in the signature style of the era. The cover, also by Eisenberg, captures the moment of surprise with playful energy.
