Notes:
Penciled Fred Flintstone and George Jetson characters by Tony Strobl, and cover reproductions of Gold Key’s The Flintstones #17 (with Harvey Eisenberg cover pencils) and The Jetsons #8 (with Tony Strobl cover pencils). Black and white ad on inside front cover.
Notes:
Use of the exclamation “Ooo-hoo-hoo!” (page 3, panel 3) suggests the possibility of this story having been written by Cecil Beard and Alpine Harper, of “Fox and Crow” fame.
Notes:
"Mr. Spicer" possibly a reference to early fandom figure and later Western Publishing letterer Bill Spicer?
Notes:
© 1964, Western Publishing Company, Inc. Not MGM characters. Despite a host of MGM-owned “guest stars” to choose from (Spike and Tyke, Barney Bear, Droopy, Little Quacker, etc.) in order to satisfy a postal requirement for second class subscription mailing rates, Western Publishing utilized its own creation, Professor Putter, for this purpose in the Tom and Jerry title beginning with issue #219 thru #230. The Professor Putter feature had originally appeared, for the same purpose, in The Three Stooges (Dell) #6-9, continuing in The Three Stooges (Western) #10-16, before moving to Tom and Jerry in 1964. Putter returned to The Three Stooges in reprint form in 1968. Professor Putter reprints continued in service to postal regulations as late as Scooby Doo… Where Are You! (Western) #15-16 and Scooby-Doo… Mystery Comics (Western) #17 in 1972-1973. Many of these stories were written by Carl Fallberg, though the dialogue in this case indicates Vic Lockman.
