Mutt & Jeff #128

The tall, mustachioed Mutt and the diminutive Jeff are caught in a perfectly chaotic moment on this bright yellow cover — sandwiched around a firing rocket while a "How to Build a Rocket" booklet lies nearby, suggesting their DIY ambitions have gone predictably sideways. Harvey Comics' beloved Bud Fisher duo look equal parts startled and singed, delivering the kind of slapstick energy that made this strip a comedy institution. As a bonus, a "Guest Star" banner promises an appearance by Richie Rich, making this 1962 issue a fun double-helping of Harvey charm.
