Today's Hidden Gem: A Classic "It Tickles" from St. John Publications?

Today, we're shining the spotlight on a true vintage gem: Mighty Mouse #15 from St. John Publications. What makes this comic special? It pays homage to a classic cover that comic aficionados will instantly recognize — Superman #32 and its iconic "It Tickles" cover!

Originally published by DC Comics in 1945, Superman #32 featured a memorable Wayne Boring cover where the Man of Steel confidently shrugs off lightning bolts bouncing harmlessly off his chest, with Superman famously saying "It Tickles." This cover has since become a beloved piece of comic book history.

St. John Publications decided to pay homage to this iconic Superman cover in Mighty Mouse #15. The cover art captures the essence of the original while infusing it with the charm and humor that Mighty Mouse brings to the table. With Oil Can Harry pulling the switch on him.
