“The Gavonian Affair, Part 12”

From August 1936, this tenth-cent anthology from DC brims with the cheerful energy of early comics publishing — and the cover by Vin Sullivan captures that spirit perfectly. A rosy-cheeked, red-scarfed boy in a yellow shirt and polka-dot trousers goes airborne mid-chase, butterfly net outstretched as a small creature just barely eludes his grasp at the edge of a fence. The bold "All Original! All New!" banner at the bottom makes clear this was a genuine showcase of fresh material, including Creig Flessel's work on "The Gavonian Affair.
