In "Outsmarted," Sadie and Gertie man the night shift at Supply while the Sarge heads off to her quarters to catch her favorite show—only to call back in a panic, claiming her power’s out. Mishearing “fuse” as “shoes,” Sadie dutifully delivers a box of size 12 footwear to the irate Sgt. Blast, sparking a classic case of comedic misunderstanding. Written and drawn by Paul McCarthy, with a cover by George Baker, this 1961 Harvey classic captures the absurdity of military life with a perfectly timed mix of confusion and chuckles.
