The Adventures of Bob Hope #55

DC's long-running humor series delivers another winning gag in this March 1959 issue, with Owen Fitzgerald's cover showing Bob Hope seated—quite involuntarily—in a bubbling cauldron over an open fire, quipping "On second thought, honey, I'll settle for a room without a bath!" A masked, grass-skirted warrior looms on one side while a glamorous blonde in a red gown stirs the pot with casual elegance on the other. It's the kind of absurd, good-natured predicament that made The Adventures of Bob Hope such a reliable ten-cent treat throughout the fifties.
