Sugar & Spike #18

Sheldon Mayer's Sugar and Spike return in this September 1958 issue from DC, and the cover says it all — the two toddlers are at the beach, and their big feelings about leaving (specifically about an unfinished hole they'd spent all day digging) are on full, wailing display across four charming comic-strip panels. It's a perfectly observed slice of toddler logic, rendered with Mayer's warm, rubbery linework and a punchline that any exhausted parent will instantly recognize. A delightful ten-cent package of humor and heart.
