Millie the Model #198

The cover of Millie the Model #198 sets up the comedy perfectly: two young men are literally carrying their dates — Millie and a friend — in a mad dash toward a movie theater entrance, racing to beat the ticket price change posted on the door. Stan Goldberg's cover art captures the chaos with bright, breezy energy, the girls exchanging quips ("Isn't it cute? The boys are carrying us to the movies!" / "Cute, nothing! They're trying to beat the price change!") while a theater employee looks on, papers in hand. It's a wonderfully relatable slice of early-'70s humor, and "Groovy Gals and Gags" promises more of the same lighthearted fun inside.
