About the series
A four-color tie-in to the popular live-action television show, this 1969–1971 Western Publishing comic series captured the anarchic, music-filled antics of the Banana Splits—Bingo, Drooper, Fleegle, and Snorky—in eight issues of slapstick adventures. Most often scripted by Don R. Christensen and illustrated by Jack Manning, the book translated the show's zany humor and colorful costumes into a comic format, blending photo covers with cartoon interiors. It stands as a lively artifact of Hanna-Barbera's 1960s multimedia push, offering young readers more of the costumed band's silly, kid-friendly escapades.
