Real Screen Comics #46

The Fox takes a spectacularly disastrous ski jump on this cheerful January 1952 cover, his skis akimbo and stars bursting from his head as the Crow watches smugly from the slope below — exactly the kind of slapstick rivalry that made this series a delight. A girl in a sombrero and the Crow's portrait in the corner round out the bright, sunny yellow cover with that unmistakable mid-century cartoon charm. For fans of funny-animal comics, this DC gem is a fine snapshot of the era's lighthearted storytelling at its most fun.
