Josie and the Pussycats #103

A Pussycats rehearsal is already off the rails on Dan DeCarlo's lively cover for this 1981 issue, where Melody panics over a lost banjo pick while Josie fires back that Alexandra could use a shovel instead of a guitar — and the glamorous Alexandra herself, microphone in hand, looks ready to prove them both wrong. The whole band is in their signature leopard-print outfits under the bright stage lights, capturing that cheerful, comedic energy the series does so well. With a Frank Doyle story called "Fancy Man" waiting inside, issue #103 promises the kind of breezy, laugh-out-loud fun that made Josie and the Pussycats a staple of the Archie Comics lineup.
