Patsy and Hedy #84

Poolside fun is front and center in this 1962 Marvel charmer, as dark-haired Patsy and redheaded Hedy trade quips at the water's edge while two attentive lifeguards look on — the girls' witty exchange ("Yes, but then who'll rescue us from the lifeguards?!!") sets the breezy, flirtatious tone perfectly. Al Hartley's cover art captures the sun-soaked atmosphere with a lively crowd of swimmers and sunbathers filling out the scene. With Stan Lee on writing duties and the story titled "In the Swim with Hedy," this issue promises the kind of lighthearted summer comedy that made Patsy and Hedy such a fun corner of early-'60s Marvel.
