ItÕs a double headed bill of teenage high jinks. Two short run series, MEET
MERTON and ANDY were low on issues but big on fun. MEET MERTON was
published by Toby in 1953. Most of the art was created by future Mad
Magazine star Dave Berg. The comic also included one page gags by Mel
Lazarus who went on to create the popular Miss Peach comic strip.
Andy was a two issue series published by Ace Comics in June 1948. It started
with issue #20 taking over the numbering from Scream Comics and ended with
issue #21. The two issues were packed with lots of fun artwork by Sam Singer
and Ruth Atkinson. Ultimately the series was renamed after one of the back-up
characters, Ernie. Here are two entertaining yet forgotten gems of the teen
humor genre.
