Cover by Rudolph Dirks. Stories and art by Rudolph Dirks. In 1948, when Peanuts didn't exist and Superman was only 10 years old, the pioneering strip Captain and the Kids, aka The Katzenjammer Kids, was celebrating its 50th anniversary. United Features Syndicate celebrates with the debut comic featuring some of the mischievous Kids' misadventures. Mama, the Inspector and most of all the Captain bear the brunt of Hans and Fritz's mean-spirited pranks, but the Kids always get it in the end. The mysterious Old Squib and his cronies believe the Captain has a treasure map tattooed on his back. This begins an epic chase involving the whole family, the Inspector, and rival pirate ships. In the "topper" strip, Hawkshaw the Detective, Hawkshaw solves mysteries in less than a minute. Plus a biography of artist Rudolph Dirks, creator of what would become the longest-running comic strip in history. Tip Top Comics Spinner Game; Presenting Rudolph Dirks; The Captain and the Kids; Hawkshaw the Detective. 64 pages, Full Color. Cover price $0.10.
