In "High Time," Audrey’s delight at winning a giant lollipop quickly spirals into a whimsical daydream, where she imagines herself growing old, still clinging to the sweet treat while the world moves on. A playful, imaginative tale drawn by Howie Post, with a vibrant cover by Warren Kremer, captures the absurd charm of childhood wonder in a 12-cent comic from 1962.

In "The Century Sucker," Jo finds herself utterly enchanted by a giant lollipop she wins as a prize—only to spiral into a whimsical, slightly anxious daydream where she imagines licking it for decades, growing old while her friends pass by, uninterested in the endless sweet. The story captures a child’s playful imagination with a touch of gentle absurdity, all in just five pages.
