Pep #138

Archie Andrews slumps at his desk, chin in hand and stars swirling around his head, looking like he's had the roughest day Riverdale has ever seen — and he's inviting you to read all about it inside. Dan DeCarlo's cover pencils capture that perfectly relatable teen-in-over-his-head expression, with a Riverdale pennant and a gooseneck desk lamp setting the scene. For a dime in 1960, Pep #138 promises that whatever troubles you think you have, Archie's got you beat.
