Description

A funny strip featuring both Jiggs & Maggie dealing with a quite rude relative of her :)
I've always loved this series, just brilliant both in terms of art and script (which could inspire - and perhaps has actually inspired - many modern sitcoms), so I'm very glad to have some nice examples in my collection, from 3 different decades.

Very timeless humor with a rude houseguest unsettling a happy home.

Great example from this classic strip!  Haven't read this story arc, but I'm assuming Baby was just released from prison?

Fabulous! Love Geo. McManus's work! Jiggs is true icon of comic book history! The art has such a great sense of art deco! Great pick-up!
