50’s and 60’s fair game, I assume? Trying to pin down which definition of mid-century modern we’re going with. Pop-Art included?

When googling it, you get a lot of the tiki and bewitched style. One of my favorite artists fits in this category.

I am sure that there is more than just this, since the OP talked about comic book art.
Google “mid century advertising” to get a taste of some other styles.

Love love love this theme! Designers, I’m counting on you. I want to see some edges and angles, arches, starburst type things, kidney shapes, cowgirls, rock-a-billy, 2-D (perspective-free), diner neon sign designs! Please.
