In that issue, the character is Jane Rassle (a parody of Jane Russell?) and there's a magazine called EH! (and she's in the centerfold of that magazine). So I'm guessing that this was a reference to her being an "it" girl, but since the origin of it girl meant not flaunting her sexuality, an EH!T girl would be flaunting her sexuality. I mean, look at the drawing. The meaning of it girl changed in the 80s.

"Since the 1980s, the term "it girl" has been used slightly differently, referring to a wealthy, normally unemployed, young woman who is pictured in tabloids going to many parties often in the company of other celebrities, receiving media coverage in spite of no real personal achievements or TV hosting / presenting."

From Hangman Comics Apr 1942 | Number: 2

 

The comic was called "From Here to Insanity" Feb 1955 | Number: 7 by Charlton Comics Group.

According to Wikipedia, "Charlton Comics was an American comic-book publishing company that existed from 1945 to 1986, having begun under a different name: T. W. O. Charles Company, in 1940. It was based in Derby, Connecticut. "

Wikipedia also notes, "In March 1960, Charlton's science-fiction anthology title Space Adventures introduced Captain Atom, by Gill and the future co-creator of Marvel Comics' Spider-Man, Steve Ditko.[15] (After the mid-1980s demise of Charlton, Captain Atom went on to become a stalwart of the DC stable, as would Blue Beetle, the old Fox Comics superhero revived by Gill and artists Bill Fraccio and Tony Tallarico as a campy, comedic character in Blue Beetle #1 [June 1964].) "

It's Howdy Doody Archie Andrews!

If Trump wins, RFK, jr will be in charge of healthcare. Bobby is anti-vax. If you want ANY vaccinations -- if Trump wins (or otherwise games the system for a win through lawsuits, etc.) -- you better get them before Jan 20, 2025, otherwise, you might need to go to Canada/Mexico just to get a vaccination.

Here's another page from that issue to compare:

 

The publisher is listed as M. L. J. Magazines. According to Wikipedia, Archie Comics started in 1939; 85 years ago (as MLJ Magazines). https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Archie_Comics

He punched an elderly election worker.

And why? After the worker told him he wasn’t allowed to wear his hat inside a polling place.

The Reason The election worker said that:

"Can you wear political clothing to vote in Texas?

No. Texas law prohibits "electioneers for and against any candidate, measure, or political party." "Electioneering" is defined as including "the posting, use, or distribution of political signs or literature." This applies to voters, poll workers and loiterers during the voting period within 100 feet of a polling place."

Wow. The popups on Forbes are bad. I had one covering the lower third until another ad popped up, covering the whole screen of my phone. I literally had one ad blocking another ad.

They're old, cranky, have someone else's hand up their butts, and what they say causes laughter... Biden and Trump are Just like Statler and Waldorf.
