Spotty the Pup
Overstreet lists 1964's Super Comics' Famous Funnies #18 as reprints. The splash panel for "The Coo Coo Cowboy" has the initials F.C. Any idea who F.C. might be? I see the initials on some other stories in Avon books from the early 1950's - especially Space Mouse. I am guessing Frank Carin (Carino) is the artist and maybe writer also.

Thanks for identifying this artist as Frank Carin. I have Super Pup #4 (first of only two issues) from Avon and wondered who drew it.
From what little I can find about him, he seems to have been a very versatile artist.
