Here's an unusual cover for a Western Publishing (Dell/Gold Key/Whitman Comics) funny animal comic. And, it's one that I like a lot, for it's mere simplicity and effectiveness!
TWEETY AND SYLVESTER #117 (Whitman Comics, No Cover Date but released in 1983).
Unlike most Tweety and Sylvester comic book covers - and all of their cartoons - Sylvester is not aggressively pursuing Tweety, and Tweety is not aggressively defending himself against Sylvester.

Perhaps tuckered-out from all that "aggressive stuff", canary and cat lie placidly in vertically-adjacent and size-appropriate hammocks... But with the added touch of keeping one eye open and trained on the other!
Proof that every such cover need not be action-packed to carry off a good gag!
