Katy Keene Comics #12

In "At the Malt Shop," Katy tries to trick Sis into drinking castor oil by slipping it into her malted milk at the local shop, only to discover Sis has swapped their drinks—because hers was bigger. The playful prank backfires in a moment of sibling mischief, all set against the nostalgic backdrop of a 1953 malt shop.

In "null," Randy tries to keep things low-key with a casual date for Katy, donning his old clothes and driving his trusty jalopy—only to be mistaken for a vagrant and hauled in by the police. The story captures a lighthearted misadventure where intentions are sincere but the outcome is anything but expected.

In "null," Jo wakes up from a nap to find her friends Katy and K.O. have left a messy picnic behind. After dreaming that Smokey the Bear scolds her for littering in her own bedroom, she’s inspired to clean up after them—no longer ignoring the mess.
