notes: label: Description
content: "Boots", created and originally drawn by Everett "Abe" Martin, focuses on Boots Ruggles and her daily adventures, mostly centering around dating and family life during and post-WWII. "Babe N' Horace" was often a topper strip for "Boots", which was also drawn by Martin. In these strips, Boots' husband Rod forgets to pick up thread for her machine, so she gets him to take her out for dinner; a boxing match turns into a dance; and different outfits for Boots made for fans of the comic appear as cut-outs for other readers to play with.
