The Adventures of Jerry Lewis #60

This October 1960 DC comedy gem captures Jerry Lewis at his most gloriously reckless — dangling headfirst out of an airplane door, clutching what appears to be a parachute pack, while a alarmed young woman in a yellow polka-dot top grabs his purple trousers and a wide-eyed onlooker peeks from behind her. Jerry's breezy quip — "I wouldn't think of falling without a parachute!" — says everything you need to know about the cheerful chaos Bob Oksner brings to every panel of this series. Oksner's clean, expressive linework gives the gag perfect comic timing, making this cover impossible to walk past without a grin.
