Pep #332

A backyard jam session hits a snag on this cheerful December 1977 cover, where Archie strikes a frustrated pose with his electric guitar, exclaiming "Rats! My fuse just blew!" while an older gentleman looks on in wide-eyed alarm and a young woman laughs nearby — all gathered around what appears to be an amplifier that's clearly given up the ghost. The banner touting "Can These Wishbones Really Do 100?" adds a fun teaser to the scene, rendered with Stan Goldberg's pencils and Jon D'Agostino's inks in that warm, lively Archie house style. With the full Riverdale gang peeking through the logo up top, Pep #332 captures the easygoing suburban humor that made this long-running anthology series such a reliable treat.
