CoronaVirus Comics TRUE LOVE PROBLEMS AND ADVICE ILLUSTRATED "Was It Love or Pity?"

You've read this basic plot before...but there's several twists you haven't seen...
Oddly, our tale, though listed second in the table of contents, appeared in the back of the book!
Dr Mathews doesn't think much of his own daughter...
This never-reprinted tale from Harvey's True Love Problems and Advice Illustrated #2 (1949) was illustrated by comics workhorse Bob Powell.
The scripter is unknown, but could have been Powell himself.

CoronaVirus Comics DENNIS THE MENACE "Dennis vs the Doctor"

Polio was one of the worst scourges the civilized world ever experienced...
...but when an inoculation was found, many still resisted taking it!
Why do anti-vaxxers act as childishly as Dennis the Menace in this tale from Standard's Dennis the Menace #26 (1958)?
Sadly, writer Fred Toole and artist Al Wiseman have both passed on and can't speculate about the reason.
