“Something Special”

This Giant-sized 1973 Archie Series issue serves up a sunny beach scene right on its cover, where Moose looms large behind Midge — who's getting a suntan application from a very attentive Jughead — while Reggie lurks nearby, prompting the cheeky exchange: "Midge, you're going to get a good tanning!" / "So is Reggie!" Betty and another pal round out the seaside gang, all rendered in Dan DeCarlo's pencils and Rudy Lapick's inks with that breezy, sun-drenched charm the series does so well. As a bonus, the issue advertises an exciting Popsicle sweepstakes with free trips to Hawaii and the Fiji Islands via Pan American Airlines — a fun little time capsule of 1973 pop culture tucked right onto the cover.
