Blondie Comics Monthly #140

Chic Young's beloved domestic comedy duo gets a giant-size Harvey treatment in this 1960 issue subtitled "Dagwood at Home," and the cover alone delivers a perfectly timed gag: a frazzled Blondie, seated and jolted by a sparking vacuum cleaner gone haywire, accidentally blasts the hose directly onto a startled Dagwood — who's been lounging in his armchair with the family cat and a book, blissfully unaware of the chaos about to hit him. At 25 cents you got a hefty helping of Chic Young's warm, witty take on suburban married life, where no attempt at housework ever goes quite according to plan.
