“Heavenly Hammock”

In "Heavenly Hammock," young Wolfie gets a whimsical idea after visiting Gazooba the fortune-teller, leading him to don a makeshift mystic disguise as Salami the Swami. With a mix of charm and mischief, he tries to trick Peter Porkchops into parting with his coins—but Peter’s got his own brand of skepticism. Rube Grossman’s expressive art brings the whole lighthearted scam to life, with both the story and cover drawn entirely by him.
