Blondie Comics Monthly #103

Chic Young's long-running domestic comedy gets a wild Western twist on the cover of this 1957 Harvey issue, where Blondie boldly brandishes a pistol at a startled cowboy-costumed Dagwood — complete with ten-gallon hat, sheriff's star, and holster — while the family dog Daisy scampers gleefully at their feet. A television in the background showing a Western scene hints at just how this whole standoff may have started. With the story "Fired and Fried" waiting inside, this is a cheerful slice of mid-century family humor done with all the warmth and wit Chic Young brought to every page.
