The Adventures of Bob Hope #53

DC's long-running comedy series delivers another charming dose of slapstick romance in this November 1958 issue, with cover art by Owen Fitzgerald showing Bob Hope in a safari-style outfit clutching a swooning blonde — while a volley of very real arrows whizzes past them both, lodging in the tree just behind their heads. The girl insists it must have been Cupid who brought them together; Bob's nervous reply — "Yes, doll — b-but when did he start using real arrows?" — captures exactly the good-natured, self-deprecating humor that made this series a delight throughout the late 1950s.
