Leading Comics #27

This cheerful 1947 DC anthology packs a full 52 pages of animal fun, headlined by Peter Porxchops and a cast of other furry favorites including the Puss 'n Pooch duo grinning from the masthead. Otto Feuer's cover art sets the comic tone perfectly: a hapless wolf has just lifted the flap on "Peter's Lunchomat" — only to get a fist of pigsknuckles to the face, while a smug little pig watches from behind the red booth with satisfaction. It's warm, slapstick fun that captures exactly the kind of lighthearted humor DC's funny-animal line delivered so well in the postwar years.
