Blondie in Home of the Free - and the Brave! Stories, art and cover by Chic Young. Pioneering comics publisher David McKay's Feature Book was the first US comic book to devote complete issues to a single character. This issue reprinted Blondie Sunday strips from 1942. The foibles of an ex-flapper who finds domestic bliss with her everyman husband became one of the longest-running comic strips of the 20th century, spawning a series of movies and even a sandwich shop. Dagwood barely gets his paycheck home before the wife and kids have spent it. 32 pages, Full Color. Cover price $0.10.
