Millie the Model Comics #59

Three cartoon judges at the "Judges' Stand" are completely distracted by Millie — dressed in a striking red outfit — while three international beauty pageant contestants (sashed for France, another country, and England) wait patiently on the stage behind them. Dan DeCarlo's lively cover art captures the comic timing perfectly, with each judge's exaggerated reaction adding a different flavor of smitten bewilderment. Promising "All New Laughs," this 1955 Atlas Comics entry delivers exactly the breezy, good-natured humor that made Millie the Model such a reliable crowd-pleaser.
