Millie the Model #199

Millie the Model has the last laugh in this charming 1972 Marvel gem — on the cover, a perfectly dry and smiling Millie strides through a downpour in her oversized red hat, clutching her handbag while her companion gets soaked and everyone around them scrambles for cover, a little dog fleeing the rain at their heels. Her speech bubble says it all: "Still think I'm nutty to wear a big hat?" Stan Goldberg's cover linework captures both the comedy and Millie's effortless style with real warmth. With "Groovy Gals and Gags" promised right on the cover, this issue delivers exactly the lighthearted fun that made Millie the Model a Marvel staple.
