"Dr. Ben's Boner" in Archie's Madhouse #30 (1963) delivers three quick, wryly drawn gags from Joe Edwards, whose art, inks, and lettering all bear his name. The issue features a cover by Samm Schwartz, capturing the same playful, offbeat tone with a patient’s chart spiraling downward—just one of the silly, self-contained laughs in this 12-cent slice of 1963 humor.

In "Dr. Scalpel," a trio of quick, absurd medical mishaps unfolds with classic Archie humor: a football player’s reflexes are tested in the most unorthodox way, a patient’s persistent calls for a pretty nurse take a comical turn, and a patient’s status chart takes a steep, hilarious decline—all in just three crisp, two-panel gags.
