Suzie Comics #93

Ferdie’s toothache lands him in a bizarre fix when Suzie attempts a DIY extraction by tying his tooth to a doorknob—only to accidentally knock him senseless. After a trip to the dentist, Ferdie’s next stop is the eye doctor, where his troubles seem only to multiply.

Suzie asks Ferdie what he’d like for a date, and his dream of a fancy evening quickly crashes when he admits he can’t afford it—leaving him scrambling to explain why he’s suddenly on the sidewalk, still holding her hand.

In this lighthearted 1953 tale from Suzie Comics #93, Katy Keene’s ski adventure takes an unexpected turn when she loses her skis at the peak of Bald Peak. Randy Van Ronson III steps in with a clever fix—nailing a wooden box to his skis—turning a mishap into a wobbly, wintery ride down the mountain.

Suzie tries to stretch her allowance by fibbing about the cost of a new coat, but when her father decides to sell it at a "bargain" price, he accidentally turns her little lie into a real-life lesson in unexpected consequences.
