The Adventures of Bob Hope #64

Set against hieroglyph-covered walls that suggest an Egyptian adventure, this September 1960 DC gem finds Bob Hope on the receiving end of a falling stone slab — a resounding "CLUNK!" to the head — while his red-haired companion gazes upward musing, "Oh, Bob — I wonder what these walls would say if they could speak?" Bob's deadpan reply says it all: "Clunk! What else?" Owen Fitzgerald's cover art wrings every drop of charm from the gag, capturing the duo's breezy chemistry in a single perfectly timed moment. At just a dime, this was pure comic relief in every sense of the phrase.
