Date with Debbi #6

DC's teen romance series serves up a perfectly timed punchline on this 1969 cover, illustrated by Henry Scarpelli: Debbi stands at the window watching a boy bolt outside while she delivers the gag to a living room full of friends — "I told Buddy we were going to play Post Office… and he ran out to buy stamps!" The scene is packed with late-'60s style, from the striped tops and mini-skirts to the laid-back group lounging on the floor and couch, all reacting to the joke with amused disbelief. It's a charming snapshot of DC's lighter, humor-driven side of teen comics in their era.
