☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "Presenting Sabrina the Teen-Age Witch," Sabrina is tasked by Della to hex her school's hockey team—only to find herself accidentally helping the team's cutest player shine. When Della sees the handsome coach, her priorities shift in a way that leaves Sabrina both puzzled and amused. Written by George Gladir and brought to life with Dan DeCarlo’s signature style and Rudy Lapick’s inks, this 1965 annual features a charming, mischievous twist on magic and teenage crushes. The cover by Samm Schwartz captures the playful spirit of the story in full.
Sabrina the Teen-Age Witch flips the script on high school drama with a spellbook in one hand and a poodle skirt in the other. In this delightfully silly 1965 gem from Archie's Madhouse Annual #3, she navigates teenage life with a magical twist—her powers come with strict rules, including a no-crying policy and a very inconvenient romance clause.
In "Witch Pitch," Sabrina’s attempt to hex her school’s hockey team goes hilariously off-script when she finds one of the players too charming to curse—her magic accidentally helping him score. Della, furious at the botched hex, takes matters into her own hands… until she lays eyes on the team’s handsome coach and reconsiders her strategy entirely.
In "The Thought Machine," a lone professor on a forgotten planet demonstrates his ancient invention—a device that turns thought into real matter—to visiting extraterrestrials. As he conjures up wonders, the story quietly builds on the eerie consequence of boredom: when his imagination wanes, the creations vanish, leaving only silence. The twist hinges on the fragile line between invention and existence, all wrapped in the quiet humor of a world that outlived its own curiosity.
In "The Law of Attraction," two misfit girls from Pluto descend on Earth to study human romance—only to find the local boys utterly unimpressed by their bold approach. When their attempts to charm the boys backfire, they turn to Earth girls for help, desperate to uncover the secret behind their effortless pull on the opposite sex.
