“Surely You Joust”

In "Surely You Joust," Veronica challenges Betty to a tennis match, claiming she’s been taking lessons and promising to play fair—no sore loser antics this time. With Dan DeCarlo’s signature style bringing the playful tension to life, Dick Malmgren crafts a lighthearted showdown that’s as much about pride as it is about the game, all rendered in vibrant colors by Barry Grossman and lettered by Bill Yoshida. The cover, penciled and inked by DeCarlo, captures the moment with his trademark charm.
