Little Max Comics #22
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "Funny Bunny," little Humphrey and his sister head to the fair, where Humphrey’s insatiable appetite leads him to devour mountains of snacks. When he casually wins a rigged weight-lifting game thanks to his surprising size, the crowd sees through the scam, chases off the barker and his accomplice, and hands Humphrey every prize—though all he really wants is to go home, still hungry. A 10-cent comic from 1953, this lighthearted tale is illustrated with playful energy, lettered in crisp typeset.
In "Funny Bunny," Little Max—silent as ever—slips into a bunny costume for Joe Palooka’s Easter party, where neighborhood kids gather for games and treats. With a quiet plan in motion, Max quietly sets up a surprise for his good friend Alice, hoping she’ll be the one to find the golden egg and win the prize.
In "See Worthy," Little Max tries to stay dry during a sudden downpour by borrowing Alice’s umbrella—only to find he can’t see over it. When he bumps into a passerby and rips a hole in the fabric, he discovers the unexpected perk of having a built-in window.
In "Water Boy," Casey and Little Max team up to water the circus animals for tickets, with Casey volunteering to handle the horses—plenty of buckets for those—but the camels, of course, demand even more. When the ringmaster insists Casey work every night, Max is excused, leaving the camels to go without water for a week.
