Thanks for the votes, everyone. I had a pretty crappy ER experience last night, so in that vein, let's go with Nurses for this week's theme. The rules: -Post one, and only one, classic cover that fits the theme of the contest. -Cover must be from a published comic book, collected volume, or, apparently, fanzine published before June 2007. -Covers must be posted before voting begins. -Voting takes place on Tuesday, June 27th, 2017, beginning at 12:01am PST and ending at 11:59am PST. -Vote by posting the name of the poster whose cover best fits the theme or that you simply like the most. -Put the name in bold. -The winner of the contest is the entrant with the most votes after the voting period ends. -The winner chooses the theme for the next week's contest. -If you don't think the cover fits the theme, don't vote for it; please don't post disparaging remarks about it. -If a cover is more recent than the classic time frame, kindly point it out so that the poster can choose an alternate before voting begins. -Don't link from comics.org or Wikia; the images don't show up here.

So this is probably proof positive that yes, Charlton had the worst printing of any major publisher, so I'm going to type the almost unreadable dialogue out, which makes it such a great cover. Patient : " Please Betsy... I need it ! Please say YES ! "
Betsy : " I ... I shouldn't ! It's wrong... so very wrong ... and we both know it but ... YES ! "

That's the famous "Nurse Betsy administers an enema" issue. A tough comic to find in high grade condition

"The Private Diary of Mary Robin, R.N.," series provides an embarrassment of riches for this contest.
