Leading Screen Comics #48

Peter Porkchops ruefully plants a "Danger! Quicksand!" sign just a moment too late, while a hapless canine already flounders in the mire — his cheerful speech bubble admitting the obvious with a sheepish "Tsk!" Otto Feuer's cover work captures that perfectly timed comedy of errors that made funny-animal comics so endearing in 1951. With 52 big pages at a dime, this DC offering delivers a generous helping of lighthearted mischief anchored by one of the era's most good-natured cartoon stars.
