Boots and Her Buddies

Over three issues published by Argo Publications in 1955 and 1956, Boots and Her Buddies brought the long-running newspaper strip to comic-book form, with Edgar Martin and Abe Martin handling both writing and art. A breezy slice-of-life series centered on the adventures of its young heroine and her circle, it captured a moment of mid-century Americana with light humor and charm. Its brief run offers a compact look at how a beloved daily strip translated into the comic-book format.
