My heart leapt up when I beheld this at the "Stupid Comics" page. Alas, it's not the exact same tale (ho ho) of the SCPA -- Space Canine Patrol Agency (the dogs, not the teeth) that holds such a place in my heart, but it's still a worthy example of why middle-60s DC comics are your best entertainment value.
Here, then, is the story of how Prophetic Pup earns admission to the SCPA, which put him in position for my favorite panel in comic books -- the one where he's showing Krypto an image of Superboy trapped under green glowing rocks, prompting Krypto to say, "Yip! Yip! My master is in danger!" and then announce that he plans to go save him forthwith.
Back when DC was having the original "Crisis on Infinite Earths," with the plan of streamlining their universe and getting rid of the ridiculous crap, I was wondering if there was any way to get the rights to the ridiculous crap they were culling from the herd. Imagine a whole comics line devoted to Superman's Pals 'n' Gals! The second bananas, like Jimmy Olsen and Lois Lane, and all the Super Animals!
Alas, it was not to be. They didn't even gratify me by having the universe ultimately saved by the Inferior Five.
Makes me wonder.
