Scott’s Comic Book Cover Advent Calendar – December 9th

December 9th, 2005

Filed under: Comics

Day Nine of the Christmas Cover Advent Calendar. With only 16 days remaining until Christmas we’re staying in the Golden Age with More Fun Comics #16 from December 1936.

Does the cover look familiar? It was the basis for several covers in the 1950s, such as Panic #1, reproduced below. Those covers seemed to have a more sinister take, but I guess catching Santa’s foot in a bear trap is sinister no matter how it’s drawn (particularly if it’s his left foot*).

    And that pun’s even better (or worse, depending on your view of puns).
