As requested, here are some places to look. Golden age comics are the best for this sort of silly stuff and many are public domain, so there are multiple places to look for them. Be warned, it is overwhelming. They churned out comics back then like they were gum wrappers.

Feel like wading through the mess of the Internet Archive if you like: https://archive.org/details/comics

If you wish to brave the evil that is Reddit, there is: https://www.reddit.com/r/GoldenAgeComics/

If anyone has other resources, feel free to add them. Please no pirate sites, there's a lot of "read today's comics online for free" sites which would violate lemmy.world ToS.

Narration: The State is boss!

Pictured is the head of a wide-eyed blond man with his tongue out. The panel starts with "HERBIE WILCOX." A middle panel states "HE'S THE LOCAL IDIOT. A TWENTY-EIGHT YEAR OLD WHO LEFT HIS BRAIN IN KINDERGARTEN." A speech bubble indicates that Herbie says, "HIYA, DICK!!" HOWYA DOIN'? HUH? HOWYA DOIN'?" Another Speech bubble says, "CATCH ANY BAD GUYS? YOU'RE MY FAVORITE YOU KNOW. YESSIREE BOBBY. My FAVORITE!!" A narration at the bottom of the panel says "YOU MAY NOT BELIEVE THIS, BUT IF YOU WANT TO BE A HIGH CALIBER DETECTIVE AND YOU'RE RUNNING LOW ON LEADS... YOU GO SEE HERBIE."
