Yogi Bear #24
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "Drip-Drip-Drip!", Wacky the circus bear—silent but full of mischief—slips into Jellystone Park and immediately starts causing chaos, impersonating Yogi Bear with a stolen outfit and a series of slapstick antics. Penciled with playful energy by John Carey on the cover and brought to life through Pete Alvarado’s expressive art inside, this 1966 Western Publishing gem captures the classic charm of the series, with Wacky’s wordless antics delighting and confusing the park’s residents.
In a whimsical twist of history, Yogi Bear transforms a corner of Jellystone Park into a playful amusement zone using natural wonders—caves, a glacial rock face, and a tipping stone—charging picnic food as entry. When Ranger Smith struggles to stop the scheme, he turns to a mysterious 19th-century law, uncovering a forgotten past that includes Oweegi Bear, Bee Bee Bear, and a trio of curious tourists in a flashback that hints at the park’s long, quirky legacy.
In "A Joker Goes Wild," Wacky, the circus-clown-bear known for his slapstick charm, slips away from his routine and finds himself in Jellystone Park, where his antics quickly go awry. Without speaking, Wacky’s expressive antics and mischievous grin lead a fisherman, a pair of tourists, and even his own trainer to mistake him for Yogi Bear, setting off a series of comedic misunderstandings.
In a clever twist on tourist tricks, the would-be pickpocket pirates Dirk and Dirge enlist Yogi Bear and Boo Boo to distract crowds on a Jellystone Riverboat tour—using the bears’ charm to draw in gawking visitors while the duo slip through the cracks, picking pockets in plain sight.
