Only one comic, but, it is an Odd one.
One odd bit is the appearance of the artist. I've expressed a fondness for seeing artists appear in their comics before. This time, the artist features prominently, but the identity of the creator is lost to time and management's egos. I kind of want to hunt down photos of all the artists who worked for Harvey in the mid-40s to see if he can be identified.
Yeah. It would probably be easier to find an old pay stub.
Anyway - here's Nappie-Kin!
So...
I've been doing some digging since writing the bit above, and we may have an identity for our mystery artist. Can anyone find a photograph of Leon Jason, circa 1946? Original storyboards for this tale are marked with a Jason Comic Art Studios tag. Jason provided humour comics to a handful of publishers at the time. Beyond that, i know virtually nothing about them, or him.
But that would seem to be the answer to our query.
