MAIN STORY

The series premiered in 1948. Stopped in 1952 after 15 issues.

The title character is Ozard Ike McBatt, who is a successful athlete in different fields such as baseball, basketball, and football. Although he is quite likable, McBatt is not exactly a brainiac, which may be contributed to the fact that he comes from the backwards hillbilly community of Wildweed Run. His girlfriend, the bombshell Dinah Fatfield, follows him around.
