Friday Fun GET LOST! "Ride in the Subway"

As a longtime New Yorker (and now Chicagoan)...
...I can attest to the accuracy (and only slight exaggeration) of this pre-Covid-19 tale by native New Yorkers Ross Andru and Mike Esposito!
This short from Mikeross' Get Lost #3 (1954) was typical of the title, one of the better MAD color comic clones.
Andru and Esposito wrote and illustrated almost everything, giving it a cohesion most other title didn't have.
Mikeross was a small publisher, who, unfortunately, didn't survive the Wertham "Seduction of the Innocent" purge of the mid-1950s, despite the fact they didn't publish any horror comics!
Besides Get Lost!, all they did was romance comics as shown HERE!
