About the series
From 1966 to 1972, DC Comics’ Swing with Scooter captured the carefree, sun-soaked energy of the California teen scene across 36 issues. Anchored by the frequent scripting of Jack Miller, Barbara Friedlander, and Mark Hanerfeld, and brought to life by artists like Joe Orlando, Win Mortimer, and Doug Crane, the series followed Scooter and his friends—Cookie, Sylvester, Kenny, Penny, and Malibu—through beach parties, drag races, and high school hijinks. It stands as a vibrant time capsule of mid-century youth culture, offering a lighthearted, wholesome counterpoint to the era’s superhero fare.
