Two one-pagers by Harris Steinbrook. This first one was probably named after Hubie Karp, author of the previous strips.

Happy Comics #18, 1 of 3

Here's the first part of another funny animal comic for your enjoyment, namely Happy Comics #18 from March 1947.

The cover looks like it's done by Dan Gordon.

As does this house ad on the inside back cover.

This story is by Jack Bradbury. You can usually tell his work by the crooked lines in the panel borders.

Hubie Karp and Al Hubbard, two veterans of the animation world.

Barnyard Comics #19, 1 of 3

Barnyard Comics was one of Standard Comics' funny animal titles, the others being Goofy Comics and Coo Coo Comics, examples of which I've posted before.

The lead story is by Frank Frazetta. As I've said before, had he never done the sword and sorcery he's most known for, he'd still have his legacy among comic fans. He was almost one of MAD's Usual Gang of Idiots, had they not each had their own policies about ownership of original art.

Hubie Karp and Ken Champin
