Hi-Spot Comics

John Coleman Burroughs wrote, drew, and likely lettered this sole 1940 issue from Hawley Publications, a one-shot anthology that offered a snapshot of early Golden Age experimentation. Featuring a mix of adventure and humor strips, Hi-Spot Comics stands as a curious artifact of its era, showcasing Burroughs’s distinctive illustrative style before the industry’s wartime boom. Though it never continued, its single issue remains a footnote for collectors of obscure pre-1940s publishers.
