“Zero's Zeal”

Two costumed superheroes — one lean and lightning-bolted, the other massively built and orange — have stormed the counter of "Chung-Ho Chinese Hand Laundry," demanding to know why their outfits got mixed up, much to the bewilderment of the poor clerk holding their ticket. Cover art by Bill Kresse and Dan DeCarlo perfectly captures the absurdist spirit of Archie's Madhouse, squeezing superhero parody and domestic comedy into a single gag-packed scene. With interior work by George Gladir and Bill Kresse, this September 1966 issue promises the cheerful, anything-goes humor that made the series a reliable laugh for Archie readers of the era.
