Pep Comics #132

Pep Comics #132 brings a cheerful slice of 1959 Riverdale life to the cover, where a stylish young woman in a pink blouse and pencil skirt strides confidently past two teens — a dark-haired girl and a red-headed boy — who exchange a perfectly timed punchline about her nickname, "Snake Hill": "Plenty of curves!" Harry Lucey's pencils and Terry Szenics's inks give the gag a breezy, effortless charm that captures the lighthearted spirit of the Archie universe at its best. With "Spring Is Spring" as the featured story, this issue feels as fresh and fun as the season it celebrates.
