“The Romantic Rich”

In "The Romantic Rich," Josie picks up a curious antique mirror at a garage sale, only to discover its warped glass distorts reflections—making anyone who looks into it appear much heavier. When Valerie sees an opportunity, she hatches a clever plan to trick the wealthy Alexandra into buying the mirror from Josie. Written by Frank Doyle and brought to life with Dan DeCarlo’s signature style, Rudy Lapick’s inks, Barry Grossman’s colors, and Bill Yoshida’s crisp lettering, this 1978 issue captures the charm and humor of Archie’s teen comic world—complete with a cover by Dan DeCarlo.
