All Humor Comics #16
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "Kelly & Gamlin Poole Movers," Bernard Dibble's clever art brings to life a delightfully mistaken moment when Archie’s pride in his royal portrait is upended by a crowd who thought they were there for his hanging—turning a moment of pomp into a perfectly timed punchline. A 10-cent comic from 1949, this issue stands out as a sharp, visual gag from Quality Comics’ humor lineup.
Kelly and Uncle Gamlin Poole, the world's foremost movers, expand their furniture business into air freight—with one catch: Uncle Gamlin "procured" a cargo plane through a crap game and learned to fly in just two hours. When they accept a rush job to fly Mr. and Mrs. Portal's furniture to Sudan, the amateur pilots quickly discover that improvisation and cockiness are poor substitutes for actual knowledge, and their plane ride becomes a comedy of errors that nobody saw coming.
In this 1949 humor tale from All Humor Comics #16, Archie beams as a crowd gathers to see his royal portrait unveiled—only to learn, to his shock, that they came because they thought he was the one about to be hanged.
