About the series
In the late 1940s, Prize Comics gave readers the short-lived, four-issue series Babe, Darling of the Hills, a lighthearted romp blending hillbilly humor with the energetic, exaggerated cartooning of creators Boody Rogers and Eric Stanton. The strip follows the adventures of its titular character, a spirited mountain girl navigating rustic hijinks and small-town chaos. Though brief, the series stands as a quirky artifact of post-war comic trends, showcasing Rogers and Stanton's distinctively playful art style before they moved on to more famous work.
