DC Comics · Animal Antics #1 · March-April 1946 · $0.10 · 52 pages · Bi-Monthly
Grade: VG- 3.5
Indicia publisher: DC Publications.
Cover artist uncredited.
This debut issue introduces Presto Pete, DC's answer to the growing demand for animal humor comics in the mid-1940s. The 52-page format gave DC's stable of humor artists room to establish the series' mix of talking animals and sight gag comedy that would define the title's early run.
The launch issue of DC's longest-running animal humor title, which would eventually morph into DC's flagship cartoon book Real Screen Comics.
Condition [GRADE PLACEHOLDER] — Classic reader grade. Honest wear throughout, but the colors still pop and it sits well in a bag. Noting: corner wear visible on all corners, spine stress lines visible, edge wear along borders. Complete interior, structurally sound, and unrestored.
We use AI to research and write our descriptions — we think Klaatu would approve of this miniscule relinquishment of power to the robots. Details are verified where possible but comics are complicated and we're not infallible. Every book is graded by a human collector who has actually held it. If something looks off, just ask.
