Jayman Posted March 21 Share Posted March 21 Just in today and I blame @OtherEric ! If he hadn’t posted his copy I wouldn’t have even known this book. Once I saw it, I had to get one! What a terrific issue. Loved the Kingdom of Radiom story, I would consider it a classic! adamstrange, plady69 and OtherEric 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are really some spectacular covers on the early Looney Tunes Four Colors, aren’t there? Glad I could point you in the direction of this one!

When that issue came on my radar, it was through a dealer waay back who used to mail out newspaper style catalogs and advertised in Overstreet. He stated in the listing next to this particular issue "As good as any Barks story" High praise indeed. OtherEric and Jayman 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had no idea but was amazed at the consistency of the likeness of Bugs and Porky from panel to panel. Animation in-betweens were the first thing I thought of.

It didn’t disappoint! You got a lot for your dime back in 1947 for this book! The two stories in this issue had depth and multiple plot lines going on. Also credit for keeping Bugs “lingo” true to his character! OtherEric 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
