Shelagh made this joke when she saw her ophthalmologist recently. I’m not above “borrowing” a joke from my wife. But if I’m the only cartoonist to make a 20/20 vision joke I will be pleasantly shocked. But what the heck. I still had fun doing this.
Art by Vince Colletta Studio in the story “Teach Me, My Love” in FIRST KISS #29, 1962.
