About the series
A single-issue tie-in from Western Publishing, Peter Potamus (1965) adapts the Hanna-Barbera cartoon starring the whimsical, purple hippopotamus and his jungle adventures. Artist Pete Alvarado brought the character's gentle, slapstick world to the comic page, offering a brief but faithful snapshot of mid-1960s licensed funny-animal publishing. It stands as a minor but charming artifact of Western's vast library of TV-inspired comics.
