Blondie Comics Monthly #85

Chic Young's beloved domestic comedy strip comes to life in this 1955 Harvey Comics installment, where the cover delivers a perfectly timed sight gag: a horrified Blondie stares wide-eyed at the family television set, only to find Dagwood's dopey face peering back at her from inside the cabinet, surrounded by a chaotic scatter of tools, loose wires, and a well-worn TV Home Repair book. It's a wonderfully relatable snapshot of mid-century home improvement ambitions gone hilariously sideways, rendered with Chic Young's warm, expressive linework throughout.
