The Adventures of Jerry Lewis #109

Jerry Lewis has apparently purchased himself a castle — and judging by the cover of The Adventures of Jerry Lewis #109, the locals have some rather medieval ideas about recreation. Bob Oksner's cover depicts a grinning, colorfully dressed Jerry cheerfully asking a rotund, stern-looking fellow what the chaps do for fun around here, blissfully unaware that he's surrounded by a guillotine, a spiked torture device, a cannon, and assorted other instruments of dungeons-and-doom. DC's self-proclaimed "America's Funniest Comic Mag!" delivers exactly that promise in this 1968 issue, pairing Oksner's wonderfully expressive cartooning with a story — "Hai Stakes and Karate Chops" — that sounds every bit as delightfully chaotic as the cover suggests.
