"Pioneers of Science: Roald Amundsen, Discoverer of the South Pole" from Classics Illustrated #76 (Gilberton, October 1950), creators uncredited and unknown
He probably also discovered penguins.
♫ He loves only collllllld! ♫
from "Most Dangerous Passage" in True Comics #65 (Parents' Magazine, October 1947), creators uncredited and unknown
Even at a young age of fifty-seven, Roald vowed to sail the seas on a three=hour tour. A three-hour tour!
According to this comic book, other discoveries by Amundsen include the best magazines for boys and girls! Titles like Polly Pigtails, the tue adventures of the girl who got hogs caught in her braids! Calling All Girls! Calling All Boys! Calling All Kids (kind of a redundant one, that)! Calling all Polar Explorers! Calling All Recently Discovered Penguins! And more!
Happy birthday, Roald!
