“Grin and Bear It!”

In "Grin and Bear It!", Betty gets a little more than she bargained for when her Aunt Helen sends her a novelty tee that says "I Heart Teddy Bears" — a gift meant for a single visit. Wearing it only to impress her aunt, Betty finds herself suddenly swamped by an unexpected avalanche of teddy bears, all thanks to the gang’s mistaken belief that she’s a devoted collector. Written by Bill Golliher and illustrated by Doug Crane, with inks by Pat Kennedy, colors by Barry Grossman, and letters by Bill Yoshida, the cover by Dan DeCarlo and Alison Flood captures the playful chaos perfectly.
