Look at that great kick in the penultimate panel!
BOOT! ...The END!
UPDATE/Correction -- Super-Comics-Spotter Charlie J just showed me a couple posts on the ASIFA Cartoon Archive that convince me that Jim Tyer is the master cartoonist behind these pages. Take a look at these funny animal comics at the ASIFA-Hollywood Animation Archive and see what you think...

hey Sherm,
This is great! My favorite kind of cartooning!
I know this sounds crazy, but i think that may be Jim Tyer. It looks alot like the stuff he did in the 40s for funny animal publications.
by the way, I had lunch with Tom Kenny a few weeks ago, and he told me you frequent house of secrets. Did you get your super rabbit there?

compare!
Hey, Charlie -- good to hear from you again! I looked at those comics you linked to, and it looks like you're right on the money. I went back to the post and put in some Jim Tyer comics links and images, too.
Thanks a lot, man! Talk to you later...

Hey, Charlie -- I'm usually at House of Secrets every Wednesday like clockwork; either at the lunch hour or after work. But as for the Super Rabbit comic, I found that in a REALLY old used book shop in Dayton Ohio. Someday I'll tell the whole story in a blog post. Stay tuned! --Sherm
PS: Tell Tom K I said "howdy!"
hi sherm! awesome post! those are really funny animals. it's true it looks like tyer's comics.
see ya!!
nice post, Sherm. I love Fawcett's Funny Animal comics!
Hi, Julian...looks like another vote for Tyer...I'm convinced! Thanks for stopping by ^_^ ---Sherm
Stephen: I've only had the good fortune to raed a few Fawcett funnybooks, but they ARE gold, aren't they? Good news is that every day somebody is scanning their old comics and uploading them to the web. It ain't paper, but it's about a billion times better than never reading them at all.
Glad you stopped by ^_^ ---Sherm
don't you have Billy the kid and oscar Scans?
This is a great post. Thanks for sharing these high res scans with us. I love these comics. I wonder if they're available in reprints?
