Linus the Lion-Hearted

Linus the Lion-Hearted, a one-shot from Western Publishing in 1965, expands the gentle comic adventures of the cereal mascot lion from his brief television run into the paneled page. Produced during the peak of Western's licensed-character output, this single issue captures the era's wholesome, all-ages storytelling. It stands as a neat artifact of mid-60s pop culture synergy, preserving a minor but cheerful piece of cartoon history.
