Looney Tunes and Merrie Melodies Comics #61

This November 1946 Dell issue sets a perfectly spooky seasonal mood, with Bugs Bunny deeply absorbed in a book of "Spook Stories" while a grinning jack-o'-lantern looms nearby and a wide-eyed Porky Pig peers nervously through the window under a crescent moon. Dan Gormley's cover art captures that cozy-meets-creepy Halloween atmosphere with warm, inviting colors that make the fright all the more charming. At just ten cents, this is a delightful snapshot of mid-1940s cartoon comics at their most playful.
