Patsy Walker #86

Patsy Walker's romantic wit is on full display in this 1959 entry, as the cover finds red-haired Patsy in the arms of the dashing Buzz Baxter outside what appears to be a moonlit house — her speech bubble warning him not to kiss her, while her thought bubble cheekily admits she'd be even angrier if he didn't. Al Hartley's cover art captures the breezy, knowing humor that made this series such a delight, with Patsy's expressive face and Buzz's confident smirk telling the whole story in a single charming image. A sweet snapshot of Marvel's mid-century romance comics at their most entertaining.
