Pep #240

Pep #240 brings the Riverdale gang's classroom chaos front and center, with a flustered teacher asking her typing class what business activity they'd like to tackle next — only for Archie to gleefully shout "Office parties! (Smack!)" while tumbling in his chair beside a laughing Betty and an amused Veronica. The cover, penciled by Dan DeCarlo, packs in the whole crew across a lively classroom scene complete with typewriters and a keyboard chart, capturing that breezy 1970 Archie energy perfectly. Al Hartley's interior art promises more of the same warm, comedic fun that made this anthology series a reliable good time.
