Porcine singer from "The Barn Yard Swoonsation" two-page text story of Charlton comic book Li'l Rascal Twins #11 (August 1958).

He's signed by Grunt Records, and his first single "My Heart Is a Pig Pen" sells a million copies. He becomes known as "The Barn Yard Swoonsation". Things are going great with tours and TV and radio appearances when suddenly, for no reason whatsoever, he loses his ability to sing.
