Number 1867: Leapin' Leprechauns!

 Tomorrow is St. Patrick’s Day, so I have a Supermouse tale of leprechauns, drawn by Milt Stein.

I have featured Stein several times in this blog. He was one of the moonlighting animators who brought a lot of those skills to the panels of his comic book stories.

In honor of the day, settle back with something green while reading. I would never suggest green beer, but if you must drink, don’t drive. (Especially do not drink and read while driving.) Perhaps a nice salad would do (horrors! Celebrating St. Pat’s Day with a salad...What am I thinking?) Be patient. It takes a few pages to get to the leprechauns in this 16-page tale. Oh, and I looked up the word “spalpeen,” thrown around in the story. It means “rascal.”

The Grand Comics Database credits the script to Joe Archibald. From Supermouse #20 (1952):
