Modeling with Millie #28

A delightful slice of early-1960s Marvel romance-comedy, this December issue finds blonde model Millie at her dressing table, frantically trying on wigs — red, brunette, and more — while a shadowy gangster lurks in the doorway, already muttering that he's found her. The cover by Stan Goldberg and Sol Brodsky perfectly captures the mix of glamour and suspense, with mirrors reflecting Millie's possible disguises as the danger closes in. Story title "The Many Faces of Millie!" promises exactly the kind of breezy, clever fun that made this Stan Lee–written series such a charming corner of Marvel's early lineup.
