Whoever the artist was, he liked a straight-on view, head tilted up, of a character crying. Fred does it in the May 9th comic and Pebbles does it a week later.
Barney and Betty appear only once in the month of May 1966 (May 1) while incidental Dino appears twice (May 8, 15); Richard Holliss provided the first two comics for you. As you know, the comics didn’t, for whatever reason, use Mr. Slate as the boss, so we get some snooty-looking chap in the May 22 comic (with a Don Messick voice, I imagine).
Sorry for the lousy scan of the May 29 comic; it’s all I can find. You miss the effect of the silhouette panel in the top row because the picture’s so dark.
Click on each comic to enlarge it.
