Ol’ George #44: Cosmo Cat
Notes on 44:
1. Here’s the problem I’ve been having collecting Cosmo Cat comics. I have Wotalife Comics #9 from 1945. The scene on the cover does not appear in the issue. There is a Cosmo story inside about a trio of baby ducks. When does he do superhero stuff? I have a Cosmo Cat #2 from 1959 which reprints a 1940’s cover, but no Cosmo inside! What the?!? The 40’s books are out of my price range now, and those ‘50’s “reprints “ contain unrelated, inferior material. There’s a 1960’s reprint book that might be affordable, but he looks too cute on the cover. If I dig online, I might find some scans. I really like the art by Al Fago (always under pseudonym.)
2. Cosmo’s fur appears to be pink. Pink! That’s not a normal color for a cat! When I get around to coloring this, he’ll be orange.
