The Better Half [(The Best Laughs of) The Better Half (Featuring Harriet & Stanley Parker)]

The Better Half, a single-issue comic from Ace Books, debuted in 1981 as a collection of the newspaper strip The Better Half (Featuring Harriet & Stanley Parker). This series captures the humorous domestic dynamics of a married couple, a staple of 20th-century newspaper comics. While its publication run was brief, it represents a snapshot of the long-running strip's appeal during the twilight of Ace Books' comic output.
