Post your DC Funny Animal comics!
1 1

76 posts in this topic

DC has a long history of publishing Funny Animal comics. Some of the titles over the years have been these:

Animal Antics

Comic Cavalcade

Funny Stuff

Hollywood Funny Folk

Leading Screen Comics

Real/TV Screen Comics

Dodo and the Frog

Flippity and Flop

Fox and the Crow

Nutsy Squirrel

Peter Panda 

Peter Porkchops

Raccoon Kids

Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer

Three Mouseketeers

Most of these DC titles got their start in the late 1940's but were defunct by 1960. The most notable exception was Fox and the Crow which lasted until the issue cover dated March 1968 although (the egregious in my opinion) Stanley and His Monster had taken over as the exclusive cover feature a year earlier.

So post your DC Funny Animal comics here! But no, Spike and Tyke don't qualify for the purposes of this thread primarily because they have their own thread over in Silver Age.

I'll start:

Flippity and Flop comics are boss! Sadly about the only way I've had to admire them is through house ads such as this one:

I can also say the same for Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer comics:

The house ads have filled me with a craving I've not yet been able to satisfy.

Pretty far from my focus but I do have a few of them.

Wow, Peter Panda! That's another title I've been able to admire only in house ads until now.

How did you manage to score that one?

It was a trade.  I had printed green rectangles and he had a comic book.

#5 is the best cover in the run as well as most of DC’s funny animal output. But frankly, it, as well of most of them, are pretty much unreadable. Thusly, I don’t have too many of them.

Comic Cavalcade 

It's interesting that Wonder Woman, Flash and Green Lantern completely lost their gigs in Comic Cavalcade in which they'd actually been the cover feature to the Fox and the Crow, the Dodo and the Frog, Nutsy Squirrel and company in issue #30 late in 1948:

(Not mine.)

I'm sure modern day comic fanboys just wouldn't understand!
