National Velvet

Based on the beloved novel and film, this two-issue series from Dell Comics in 1962 follows the story of Velvet Brown, a young girl determined to transform a horse into a champion. Written by Gaylord Du Bois and illustrated by Jack Sparling, the comic captures the heart of the classic tale without delving into the later adventures of the franchise. Though brief, it stands as a charming, period-specific adaptation from a major publisher of the era.
