Pep Comics #120

In "Shoes Your Weapons!", Midge tries her luck at bowling, but every roll sends the ball straight into the gutter—though she’s not about to give up, not when her worn-out bowling shoes are the only ones that fit her feet just right.

In "Weed It and Reap," Archie’s confusion between garden plants and weeds leads to a classic teen mishap, with Jughead offering a surprisingly literal solution: dig it all up and see what comes back. The story captures the humor of teenage misadventures with a simple, clever twist on gardening.

In "File Card," Veronica lands a filing job from Mr. Weatherbee, only to pass it off to Betty to keep her away from Archie. When Betty asks Archie for help, Veronica’s jealousy flares—until she reclaims the task, only to find herself stuck shredding files by hand, her frustration mounting in a moment of classic teen chaos.

In this lighthearted 1957 gem from Pep Comics #120, Katy’s big break in a movie role takes a wild turn when Gloria pressures Danny into switching the part to her—only to bolt when she learns she’ll be stuck in a clown suit. Written by an unknown hand and illustrated by an unknown artist, the story captures the silly, swift shifts of a small-town dream gone delightfully off-script.
