Richie Rich Vaults of Mystery #30

A wide-eyed, horrified Richie Rich dominates this September 1979 Harvey cover as he watches Professor Keenbean and Bascomb literally fading away before him — his shocked exclamation "Omigosh! Professor Keenbean! Bascomb! Y-You're disappearing!" says it all. The cover teases the story "Where's Everybody?" with a tantalizing promise that soon Richie will be asking that very question on a much grander scale. It's a wonderfully unsettling setup that blends the series' signature humor with just enough eerie mystery to keep young readers turning pages.
