“Daze 'n' Knights”

In "Daze 'n' Knights," a 1949 Four Color comic from Dell, Jimmy Hatlo delivers a delightfully mischievous tale of pranks and mistaken identity. When Henry fakes a call to dodge a bill collector, his neighbor Iodine copies him—only to turn the tables with a series of escalating prank calls. The humor builds as Henry, determined to outwit her, dons earmuffs to block the noise, only to discover the next day that his neighbor’s luck has changed in a surprising way. A clever, lighthearted story with Hatlo’s signature wit, illustrated and inked by him for both the interior and cover.

When Henry gets a call from a bill collector he pretends to be someone else. Iodine copies him and makes a bunch of prank calls. Henry figures out it is her and puts on earmuffs so he can't hear the phone. He tells her that he is smarter than she is and that she can't put one over on him. The next day he finds that his neighbor has won a bunch of prizes because he didn't answer the phone the day before.
