Leave it to Binky
(DC, 1948-1958, 1968-1970)

Leave It To Binky was one of DC’s entries into the crowded teen humor field in the 1940s. The brainchild of DC’s premier comedy creator Sheldon Mayer (Scribbly, Sugar and Spike), Binky could still never quite escape the influence of the big man on the teen humor campus, Archie. Binky’s adventures are set in the familiar constellation of teen concerns—girls, school, parents, girls, cars, girls, friends, and of course girls. This timeless formula helped the otherwise innocuous Binky survive the 50s and 60s to become one of the last of the old DC humor titles to make it past the Silver Age. Binky stories were reprinted in a hard-to-find issue of Super DC Giant in the early 70s.
