Happy Comics #3

In "A Gob's Gob," Charley Cat swaps naval duty for shore leave, only to find himself tangled in a whirlwind of mishaps—from dodging kidnappers to accidentally taking flight in an aircraft factory—before crash-landing back on his ship, much the worse for wear. Written and drawn by Ben Levin, this 1944 adventure captures the chaos and charm of wartime downtime with a sprightly, slapstick energy. The cover by Jim Tyer perfectly captures the comic's lighthearted, action-packed spirit.
