Our Gang Comics #23
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "The Runaway Giraffe," a 1946 Dell gem, Barney’s headache spirals into chaos when Benny’s well-intentioned efforts to keep things quiet only make matters worse—leading to an unexpectedly dramatic case of shellshock. Written and drawn by Carl Barks, this classic Our Gang Comics tale captures the series’ signature blend of slapstick and heart, with Walt Kelly’s expressive cover adding a playful punch.
In "Barney's Headache," the usually steady Barney is struck down by a crippling headache, and his well-meaning friend Benny goes to great (and hilariously loud) lengths to keep things quiet for him. But Benny’s frantic efforts to be silent only make matters worse, sending Barney into a tail-spin of exaggerated distress.
