Monday Holiday Madness SANTA'S CHRISTMAS COMICS "Coo Coo in 'Christmas Capers' "

Our Final Yuletide Entry is Quite Mad...
...as in "cuckoo", since that's exactly what he is!
This never-reprinted story from Nedor/Pines' one-shot Santa's Christmas Comics (1952) by artist Milton Stein and an unknown writer features a character almost totally-unknown to comics fans today!
Coo Coo the Bird-Brain was an irrepressible, anarchic cuckoo bird along the lines of Daffy Duck, who was named after the title of Nedor/Pines' Coo Coo Comics funny-animal anthology...but he didn't actually appear until near the end of the book's run beginning in #47, in 1949 and running through the final issue, #62, in 1952!
This is his only appearance outside of Coo Coo Comics, and none of his stories has AFAIK, ever been reprinted!
