Millie the Model Comics #47

Millie the Model #47 (1953) captures a perfect slice of summer frustration, as Millie and her companion Clicker lounge atop a jam-packed red convertible in bumper-to-bumper beach traffic, a picnic basket and radio in tow, with a sign taunting them that the beach is still 2¼ miles away. Dan DeCarlo's cover art is warm and breezy, with Millie's cheerful shrug and Clicker's "Who cares?" attitude turning a traffic headache into pure fun. The promise of "Millie's 3-D Poses" inside makes this 1953 Atlas issue an appealing package for fans of lighthearted romance comics.
