Snake On A Plane - And Bear & Lion & Monkey & Cow & Horse & Bird & Moose & ...Dragon?


Sky Girl brought a number of odd things to the Fly Girl genre, including a love of animals.
Not Ginger Maguire's love of animals, that of the writers...







If you wanted animals on planes in the 1940s, Sky Girl was the one to see.
You might have noticed a couple animals listed in the title were not shown above. I didn't want you to think that she had no love for animals, or that the relationship with them was completely adversarial, so we've got a couple stories for you to fill the gap. Both tales are drawn by Matt Baker.

Enjoy the dialogue in this tale, too - especially that of the pair of hoods who could have stepped out of a much more modern comic...



Y'know...  Sky Girl did Cavemen, too...


...but we're not there yet...
