I was thinking the same thing. I read the original post an hour ago, then I took the dogs for a walk and thought about it, and I thought, It's Goldie the Gargoyle!
But I couldn't remember where the panel was from, so I came back to check and you're right, that's way before The Sandman. Although I'm not sure that there weren't gargoyles in House of Mystery and House of Secrets in the 1970s.
has already answered his own question, I see (probably he knew it all along & just wanted to see how ignorant the rest of us are), but yeah ... a gargoyle was sort of the comic house mascot for House of Mystery for at least its first couple of years as a horror-esque title. That started at some point after this cover story from the first original (more or less ... IIRC, the issue before that was all-reprint) post-Dial H ish --  I'm not sure when Goldie first appeared, but Gregory the Gargoyle appeared at least once, in House of Mystery #254 (Sept. 1977). He ate Paul Kupperberg and Jack C. Harris in that story. |

Hello all, Not sure where to ask so I thought I'd resurrect this thread. Could you please help identifying any of these? Thank you so much.  This is Mary Jane and Sniffles...  Not sure about Mary Jane; but, Sniffles was an early Warner Bros. character, directed by Chuck Jones, in several cartoons. |

The last one: I don't recognize this; but, the style appears very Franco-Belgian; or, at least, European. |

This I would say is probably European; maybe South American. That's and old school soccer ball (football, everywhere else in the world) and soccer didn't really start making inroads into the US until the late 70s. Those comics look to be at least from the 60s or earlier. |

This looks American, circa late 50s or 60s. I thought, for a moment, it might be Li'l Rascal, from Charlton; but, the style is wrong. That one was deliberately drawn to look like Dennis the Menace. It has a familiarity to it, though. |

This looks a bit like Warren Kremer and the Harvey house style. |

It has a familiarity to it, though. I think this is a Little Pete strip by Henry Boltinoff, who di countless characters in half- and one-page strips for DC for decades. According to Mike, Boltnoff drew 850 of these for DC. His list does not include each one, but it is impressive nonetheless. Couldn't find which one it might be on this list, but you might:http://www.mikesamazingworld.com/mikes/features/gallery.php?page=boltinoff |

The style definitely looks like Boltinoff and here is one with the mother, which looks like the woman at the door...  |
