Sugar and Spike-Sheldon Mayer-1956


I just found out that DC is "reviving" Sugar and Spike as adult detectives whose clients include superheroes. Sigh...The original series, which ran nearly the length of the Silver Age, is one of the closest things to a perfect comic book series ever. Here's their very first appearances from 1956, pretty amazing right out of the gate!
