Friday Fun DUNC AND LOO "Loo in 'Hot Potato' "

Remember When Not All "Teen Humor" Comics Looked Like Archie?

This never-reprinted story from Dell's Dunc and Loo #8 (1963), featuring title slacker Loo is a kool example!

Scallions, also called "green onions" or "spring onions", are immature, not fully-grown onions!
Usually, they're used as a minor flavor element in cooked dishes and salads.
I've never heard of a "scallion sandwich"!
Trivia: The book was originally-titled Around the Block with Dunc and Loo, but was shortened to just Dunc and Loo as of #4.
(Apparently suburban and rural readers used "corner" or "street" instead of "block" when referring to addresses, so the original title confused them!)

Written by John Stanley and illustrated by Bill Williams (the series' co-creators).

It was one of three "teen humor" series created for Dell by Stanley, including Kookie and Thirteen (Going on Eighteen) for Dell.

Friday Fun FAIRY TALES "Belling the Cat" "Boy Who Cried Wolf!" "Lion and the Mouse"

Here's trio of never-reprinted one-pagers from Ziff-Davis' short-lived Fairy Tales!

A short based on the classic folktale rendered in a very Walt Kelly-esque style from Ziff-Davis' Fairy Tales #11 (1951)!

Short but effective, this re-telling of the parable/fable, also from Fairy Tales #11, was the inside back cover feature, which is why it's b/w instead of four-color!

The inside front cover of Fairy Tales #10 (which is actually the first issue) presents an adaption of one of Aesop's Fables, not a "fairy tale", per se!

We don't know who the creatives are, but we're willing to bet the writer/adapter is the comic's editor, Jerry (Superman) Siegel!

Monday Madness / Easter Reading Room EASTER WITH MOTHER GOOSE "Easter Bunny and the Dwarf"

To be clear, "dwarf" is not politically incorrect...

...so just sit back and enjoy the never-reprinted tale from Dell's Four Color Comics: Easter with Mother Goose #140 (1947) without any guilt!

This story, written and illustrated by Walt (Pogo) Kelly features a number of nursery rhyme characters including Jack and Jill (who went up a hill), Little Jack Horner, and Mother Goose herself.

But, it is not, as was often the case with Kelly's holiday pieces, an adaptation of existing nursery rhymes, but a totally-new tale!
It's also a prequel to the book's main tale featuring an Easter party...which you'll see on Easter Sunday!

Easter Reading Room EASTER WITH MOTHER GOOSE "Chicken Little"

It's a classic tale with a holiday twist...

...as told by the legendary Walt (Pogo) Kelly in Dell's Four Color Comics: Easter with Mother Goose #140 (1947)

"Fudgy-wudgy" indeed!

Easter Reading Room EASTER WITH MOTHER GOOSE "Buddy Bunny's Problem"

Here's a kool short story by Walt (Pogo) Kelly...

...about the Easter Bunny bringing his son into the family business!

This story from Dell's Four Color Comics #103: Easter with Mother Goose (1946) was written and illustrated by Walt Kelly, whose signature series Pogo wouldn't debut for another three years.
Trivia:
While Pogo as a stand-alone series began in 1949, various characters, including Pogo himself and Albert the Alligator had appeared as supporting characters in other Walt Kelly-written and illustrated strips since 1941!
