🏆 Bester Comic-Strip (1984)

In "The Monster Menace," the Marvel Family faces a sweet-sour showdown when kids from a rival school sabotage an award sock hop by stealing the ice cream and Tootsie Rolls. Captain Tootsie springs into action, tracking down the culprits and not only rescuing the treats but also replacing the stolen Tootsie Rolls with fresh ones. Penciled by C. C. Beck and inked by Pete Costanza, this 1948 classic delivers a playful, action-packed adventure with a sugary twist—perfect for fans of Golden Age charm and candy-coated heroics.
