My Friend Irma
(Marvel, 1950-1955)
™ and ©1954 Columbia Pictures Broadcasting
Did you hear the one about the blond fox that got caught in a trap? Yup, she chewed off three legs and was still stuck (ba-dum-bump!). See, I could have been the writer for My Friend Irma, one long blond joke that ran for nearly 50 issues during the early 1950s, except that the actual writer happened to be one Stan Lee and the artist was teen humor genius Dan DeCarlo (of Archie fame). My Friend Irma was based on a popular radio and TV show featuring the adventures of the air-headed Irma and her pals, young “career girls” whose amazing and incurable dumbness was the root of so much hilarity (“Are you girls amateurs?” asks the art instructor. “No,” replies Irma, “we’re not even related.”) In one memorable sequence, Irma actually complains that Stan and Dan are making her too dumb—then ends up walking out with their paychecks. Excelsior!
