I Don't Want to Be Out Here Any More Than You Do, Beetle Bailey #12256 [4]

Mort Walker's long-running military comic strip gets another laugh-packed paperback collection in this 1980 Tempo Books edition. The cover says it all — a thoroughly exasperated Sergeant is pressed against a tree while Beetle cheerfully shovels dirt with all the enthusiasm of someone who has absolutely no idea what he's doing wrong. Billed as "more hilarious misadventures of the wackiest G.I. in the Army," it's a perfect snapshot of the gentle, good-natured chaos that made this strip a perennial favorite.
