Beetle Bailey Rise and Shine / Plays to Win (Giant Size) #49-051-8 [5]

Mort Walker's long-running army strip gets a fitting title in this 1983 collection, *Rise and Shine* — though the cover makes clear Beetle Bailey has no intention of doing either. The scene says it all: a blissfully snoring Beetle, still tangled in his bunk while his pillow hits the floor, as a stern, fist-raised Sgt. Snorkel looms over him surrounded by a cloud of ZZZs. It's a perfectly cheerful snapshot of Camp Swampy's most reliable dynamic, packaged in Mort Walker's warmly familiar cartoon style.
