Sad Sad Sack #22

Harvey's giant-sized humor anthology returns with issue #22 of Sad Sad Sack World, and the cover delivers the series' signature brand of military misadventure in fine form. The scene is pure chaos — a hapless soldier attempts pole vaulting with predictably disastrous results, bodies flying and stars bursting, while the Sarge, the General, and assorted onlookers react with the full range of dismay and bewilderment, a tiny figure even lounging on a plush red mattress nearby. The left-side roster panels remind readers that Sad Sack, Sarge, the General, Muttsy, and Sadie Sack are all along for the ride in this 1969 twenty-five-cent package of comic relief.
