Alex Toth
Sugar Bowl Comics v1 #1, 1948 - This teenage series mixes conventional humor stories with a few thinly-veiled morality tales. A foreign student becomes the subject of harassment, and the lead character nobly stands up for him. This Alex Toth tale is very early in his career and one of his first non-superhero works. He struggles with figure drawing on many of the pages and his layouts are sometimes difficult to follow. His cover design is slightly better, benefiting from its clarity and simplicity. Ironically, Toth's best effort on this first issue is a pair of text illos of Jane Addams, founder of Chicago's Hull House. This issue also includes artwork by Larz Bourne. This is 1 of 2 Sugar Bowl Comics issues by Toth. /// key 1st issue
