Peter Panda #6

Peter Panda's fairy-tale adventure gets a delightfully sugary twist in this 1954 DC offering, as the cover puts our little panda hero perched right on top of a candy house — complete with a giant ice cream cone chimney, cookies, and sweets decorating every surface — while two children below gaze up in wonder and a sinister witch peers out from the window. The story title "Hansel and Gretel Land" promises a playful spin on the beloved folk tale, filtered through the charm of Win Mortimer's clean, cheerful linework. It's a warm and whimsical ten-cent package that captures exactly the kind of imaginative fun DC's funny-animal comics delivered so well in the early 1950s.
