“Thunder-Head”

Dagwood Bumstead is having a very bad baking day — his homemade bread has gone off with a resounding "BOOM," sending him airborne in a shower of batter while a cookbook, yeast, baking powder, and assorted kitchen chaos scatter around him. Paul Fung Jr.'s cover captures that perfectly exasperated Dagwood energy, all wild hair and wide-open mouth, in the cheerful slapstick tradition Chic Young's beloved strip made famous. At just a dime, this 1955 Harvey Comics entry is a delightful slice of mid-century domestic comedy.
