GoComics is delighted to re-introduce "Skippy." The legendary comic created by Percy Crosby debuted in 1923 and ran in newspapers until 1945.
Hailed by critics, fellow cartoonists and readers as a "classic," it's easy to see how "Skippy" inspired comics like "Peanuts" and "Calvin and Hobbes." We hope you enjoy this glimpse back in time with one of the most-beloved characters of the mid-20th Century.

In the second panel, “popper” is a word play on “papa.” As for the third panel, I got nuthin’.

Skippy may’ve inspired both Moe Howard and Don Rickles. ☺☺

@lleshin
For “popper”, yeah I think you’re right. P3 – probably the "pun"ishment fitting the term.

Maybe Tootsie Pops, invented in 1930 and called by many Tootie Pops.
