Richie Rich Jackpots #17

The cover of this June 1975 Harvey Comics issue sets the stakes high with its bold tagline: "Whoever controls 'The Fantastic Building Machine' rules the world!" Richie Rich himself is being grabbed by a menacing robot — one of two hulking mechanical figures on the scene — while armed men in the background and a startled heavyset man in a brown suit suggest the situation is anything but under control. It's a lively, action-packed snapshot of Richie caught between high-tech villainy and classic Harvey charm, promising plenty of adventure inside for a quarter.
