DC Special #2

There's a wonderfully warm holiday charm to this 1969 DC Special, where a teenage couple steals a romantic moment on the sofa — sharing a kiss and sighing "Ahhhh, alone at last!" — while a crowd of grinning kids, a kitten, and a dachshund conspire to make sure they're anything but. Bob Oksner's cover art captures the scene with lively, expressive energy, framing the whole chaotic tableau against a cozy crackling fireplace. Billed as "Top Teen Favorites in a Hippy Happy Holiday Happening," this issue promises a lighthearted good time that still feels infectiously fun more than fifty years later.
