TELEVISION GREATS-THE SITCOMS VOLUME ONE BLACK & WHITE EDITION
A COLLECTION OF EIGHT T.V. COMEDIES RETRO COMIC REPRINTS #591
Usually printed in 3 - 5 business days
Relive the halcyon days of our youth with TELEVISION GREATS-THE SITCOMS: VOLUME ONE. There
was a time when situation comedies ruled the television airways. After a long day, families would
gather around the single black & white television in their homes and laugh together at comedy
shows of that era. When syndicated television came along, many of these great shows found a
second life and were repeatedly watched by kids when they returned home from school and
became cultural touchstones for multiple generations.
Of course, with great successes come great licensing opportunities. The most popular television
shows were adapted to comic books and regularly appeared on the spinner racks of the day. Dell
Comic’s anthology series, FOUR COLOR COMICS provided a pathway to test which television series
would be the most profitable to spinoff into their own comic book series. Included in this collection
are eight hysterically funny comic books based on popular television sit-coms. They are: ANDY
GRIFFITH from FOUR COLOR #1341, CAR 54, WHERE ARE YOU? from FOUR COLOR #1257, a selection
of stories featuring the HONEYMOONERS from JACKIE GLEASON issues #1-3 published by ST. JOHN,
LEAVE IT TO BEAVER from FOUR COLOR #1285, Dell Comics' McHALE’S NAVY #3, MISTER ED, THE
TALKING HORSE from FOUR COLOR #1295, Dell's THE BEVERLY HILLBILLIES #1 and THE DANNY
THOMAS SHOW from FOUR COLOR #1249
