Squirrel Appreciation Day 2014!

I don't know what it is about squirrels, but they seem to pop up every now and again in the romance comics. Easy to draw? Symbolic in some way? Who knows the reason why, but they sure are a delight. Anyway, I used to celebrate these fuzzy little creatures in the spring, but I was recently made aware that January 21st is Squirrel Appreciation Day! To celebrate, here are a couple more squirrels I dug up from the pages of the romance comics!

"Secret Marriage" Just Married #39 (December 1964)

"Appointment with Heartbreak" Young Romance #170 (February/March 1971)
