Why in Database: Taffy is a turtle appearing in two comics published in Buster Bear #001 and #002 (reprints in Marmaduke Mouse #061 and #063). He doesn’t have much character, he does as the plot tells, delivers letters when he should, etc.
Buster Bear #001: He appears in one comic – the Fox and the Squirrel are arguing who is to become the mayor, both wants to outsmart the opponent. The fox proposes a race in which the first animals that will come, will be racing (he is seeing a rabbit coming in front and a turtle behind him). The whole thing is quite a classic version of the “tortoise and the hare“, of course Taffy (thanks to the disturbing fox) wins.
Buster Bear #002: He appears on two pages in one of the stories. Taffy works as a postman, and, having misunderstood the rabbit, he broadcasts a rumor that leads to some misunderstandings.
