Tom & Jerry Comics #180

This 1959 Dell issue puts Tom in a chef's hat behind a counter, glowering with trademark intensity as paper airplanes sail through the air around him — and it's clear Jerry and little Tuffy are the mischievous culprits, perched on stools and gleefully launching the folded missiles while a soda bottle sits nearby as an innocent bystander. Harvey Eisenberg's cover art captures the duo's playful chaos with the warm, expressive linework that made MGM's favorite cat-and-mouse rivalry so charming on the page. At a dime a copy, this is a delightful snapshot of Tom and Jerry comics at their most cheerfully anarchic.
