Blondie #152

Chic Young's beloved domestic comedy duo is in fine form on this June 1962 Harvey Comics issue, where Blondie looks up in alarm from a steaming, scorching iron while Dagwood — briefcase in hand, hat askew, and his shirt untucked beneath his open jacket — seems to have caught her mid-disaster at the ironing board. The sizzling sound effects and Blondie's wide-eyed expression capture that perfectly timed household chaos that made this strip a household name for decades. A charming snapshot of early-'60s funny-book fun, all for twelve cents.
