Patsy and Hedy #50

This charming 1957 Atlas Comics entry finds Patsy and Hedy on the cover in a delightfully awkward moment outside a movie theater — a dashing fellow named Buzz stands between the two girls, his face covered in lipstick marks, blissfully unaware of what "played" while the redheaded Patsy raves about the film's critical acclaim. Al Hartley's clean, expressive linework captures all the breezy romantic comedy energy that made this series a staple of mid-century teen comics. At just ten cents, Patsy and Hedy #50 is a warm snapshot of 1957 humor and style.
