Harvey Hits #32
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeHarvey Hits #32 brings another round of army absurdity with Sad Sack's Army Life, and George Baker's cover sets the tone perfectly — a beleaguered sergeant gets pelted by a cascade of flying rolls or potatoes while a green-clad figure hauls away a massive sack labeled "POTATOES," with a little dog watching the chaos unfold nearby. It's the kind of slapstick military humor that made this series a staple of 1960 newsstand racks, all rendered in Baker's loose, expressive linework. For fans of gentle comedic comics with a warm, cartoonish charm, this one's a ten-cent delight.
