Porky Pig #64
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "The Wide, Wide Westerners," Porky Pig swaps his gym routine for a wild new venture, opening a weight-loss franchise in the surprisingly soft-hearted town of Stirrup Bend—where cowboys have grown too cozy with machines to care about fitness. With the locals unimpressed by his methods, Porky calls in the one man who can stir up a real ruckus: Yosemite Sam. Written by Don R. Christensen and illustrated by Phil De Lara, this 1959 Dell classic features energetic art and a perfectly timed clash of personalities, all captured in Tony Strobl’s dynamic cover.
In the dusty town of Stirrup Bend, where cowboys have grown soft from too much machine work, Porky Pig tries to launch a weight-loss franchise after his own slimming success—only to find the locals uninterested in getting fit. When motivation stalls, he calls in the fiery Yosemite Sam to shake things up, turning the quiet cattle town into a showdown of sweat, grit, and stubborn stubbornness.
In "Porky Pig and the Wax-Works Bandits," Porky takes a night watchman job at a wax museum, only to nod off during his shift. Mistaken for a statue by the infamous duo Waxey and Maxey, he springs into action—catching the bandits in a moment of comedic confusion. The story's a delightfully silly caper, turning a sleepy night into an unexpected spotlight for the ever-earnest Porky.
