Sick was decent when Bob Powell was the art director for a couple of years just before he started working for Marvel. No idea how it hung on for another decade after that.
Here's a song I memorized from Mad sometime in the 60s:
It's a grand old smog It's a low-lying smog You can tell by the smell and the pall
Though it clouds the skies And burns our eyes It means there's employment for all
For it comes, you see From some great factory Where there's never an idle cog
So don't give up Our way of life And give thanks for that grand old smog

This question was sent to the GCD but I know we have some people here who know a lot. "I am an Italian comics reader and I wanted to ask you if you could identify the drawer of the following comic strip corrierino-giornalino.blogspot.com/2023/12/jonny-e-zeta-spasso-fra-le-nuvole.html "Jonny and Zeta a spasso fra le nuvole" published in the magazine "Corriere dei Piccoli" from nº 13 of 26 March 1961 to nº 34 of 20 August 1961. It appears to be a comic strip first produced for the French and Belgian market and only later published in Italy. The cartoonist could be Maurice Maréchal or Arthur Berkmans (Berck) or simply some less famous cartoonist imitating them."

Looking at the GCD cover gallery, it looks like the earliest issue that I remember is #93, March 1965, and I bought it occasionally for about six years. The last cover that looks familiar is #142, April 1971. My first National Lampoon was eleven months later, the March 1972 issue.

I spent very little time down the shore in my NJ years. When I was very young my father took me to the annual teachers' convention in Atlantic City, where I got a Classics Illustrated comic. A few years later we took day trips to a place in Mantoloking a few years in a row to "swim" in the ocean a bit. When I was older I went to Asbury Park once or twice, and had a fun vacation in Cape May with my first wife.
Never saw a Zero bar, there or anywhere else.

A couple of entries have inspired me to repost this sentence from the OP, with emphasis added:
"...Santa Claus--or another character dressed as Santa Claus--heading up or down a chimney, either from the roof or fireplace."

Life has been kicking my butt recently. I've started a list; I have five so far.
