El BomboMr. Biltybux

In a delightfully absurd 1948 comic gem, El Bombo and Mr. Biltybux make a pact to count to 50 before losing their tempers—only for Bombo to test the limit in a rough neighborhood. When a string of toughs ambush him, he sticks to the count with deadpan determination, turning a simple rule into a riot of slapstick chaos.
