Pep #306
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "In a Pickle," Reggie’s attempt to sneak into Midge’s baby-sitting duties backfires when he discovers her charge is even more chaotic than Moose—leading to a hilarious standoff of misadventures. Written and drawn by Dick Malmgren, with inks by Rudy Lapick, colors by Barry Grossman, and letters by Bill Yoshida, this 1975 classic captures the chaos of teenage babysitting with a touch of Archie-style humor. The cover by Stan Goldberg and Jon D'Agostino perfectly captures the moment’s absurd energy.
In this brief, charming slice of 1975 teen life from Pep #306, Archie finds himself caught between admiration and awkwardness as he eyes Veronica’s stunning gown, while Fred quietly plots his next snack-time escape to bed. Jughead, ever the dramatic, makes a bold (and hilariously unorthodox) bid to be adopted by Veronica, and Betty steps in with a quiet but pointed question about her place in Archie’s world—leaving the group’s dynamics buzzing with unspoken tension.
In "The Great One," Reggie steps in to help Midge baby-sit when Moose can't, only to discover that her charge is just as unpredictable—and possibly even more so—than his usual troublemaking friend. The story follows Reggie’s unexpected night of chaos, where babysitting duties take a wild turn with a very special kind of mischief.
