Leading Comics #24

This 1947 DC humor comic delivers a wonderfully absurd scene right on its cover: a wide-eyed, frantic wolf has tumbled down a fireplace chimney and into a cozy living room, only to find Peter Porkchops relaxing in an armchair, newspaper in hand, dryly remarking "Hmmmmm... seems to me something's wrong with this picture!" — with a roaring fire crackling just below the hapless intruder. Otto Feuer's cartooning brings every detail to cheerful life, from the checkered tablecloth to the wolf's comically panicked expression. Fans of lighthearted funny-animal comics will find this issue, featuring a "brand-new flock of animal pals," a genuinely delightful slice of mid-century DC whimsy.
