Sad Sack Comics #79

Harvey Comics' long-running military misfit gets himself into another perfectly timed mess in this 1958 installment. George Baker's cover says it all: Sad Sack staggers dazed beneath a loud "CLUNK!" as a coconut ricochets off his hat, while a mischievous monkey clings to a nearby palm and a second monkey looks on with gleeful innocence. It's the kind of cheerful, slapstick bad luck that made this series a ten-cent delight, and "The Sample" promises more of the same inside.
