Pep #328

Pep #328 brings a cheerful slice of 1977 Riverdale life straight to your hands, with a cover by Dan DeCarlo and Jim DeCarlo that captures the gang's summer spirit beautifully. Up top, the whole beach-ready crew poses playfully behind the bold PEP logo, while the main scene drops into an ice cream parlor where Veronica and Archie sit at a table — a striped-aproned soda jerk delivering an enormous sundae — and the speech bubbles deliver a wry little commentary on inflation that feels both timely and timeless. It's a warm, witty snapshot of Archie comics at their most charming.
