Binky's Buddies #9

Henry Scarpelli's cover for this June 1970 DC teen humor issue says it all — Binky is so distracted by a stylish blonde walking past that he's completely lost track of where his garden hose is pointing, much to the soaking misfortune of the bespectacled fellow around the corner. With a buddy whispering "Pssst! Binky… you see the gorgeous chick that just passed?" and water flying everywhere, Binky's Buddies #9 delivers exactly the kind of cheerful suburban comedy the series was built on. A fun snapshot of early-'70s DC humor comics at their most lighthearted.
