Chic Young's Dagwood Comics #46

Chic Young's Dagwood Comics #46 brings the beloved Bumstead family's slapstick charm to a delightfully chaotic October 1954 cover, where a dazed figure hangs upside-down from a tree branch, stars swirling around his head, while two kids on roller skates zip past in the commotion — one of them trailing a runaway skate that's already left a cloud of dust. Paul Fung Jr. handles both the writing and art for "The Hobby," suggesting that whatever pastime is being pursued here has gone spectacularly sideways. Harvey Comics and the Dagwood universe are in fine, funny form with this ten-cent slice of suburban mayhem.
