Sugar & Spike #34

This delightful 1961 spring issue from DC's beloved toddler comedy series finds Sugar clutching a baseball and making a break for it while a mob of young ballplayers scrambles over and around a backyard fence in hot pursuit — her speech bubble reasoning that if they want it that badly, it must be delicious. Spike, meanwhile, looks on from the grass beside his toy truck, blissfully uninvolved in the chaos unfolding around him. Sheldon Mayer's cover perfectly captures the gentle, warm humor that made this series so endearing, all for just a dime.
