That Wilkin Boy #39

Tennis courts and teen troubles collide on Stan Goldberg and Jon D'Agostino's cover for this 1976 Archie Series gem, where Bingo Wilkin is clearly more interested in the charming Samantha — both holding tennis rackets — than in any advice about keeping opponents away from center net. In the background, a masked player leaps dramatically at the net while an instructor gestures at a seated student, making it clear that the only thing harder than tennis strategy is keeping Bingo's attention on the game. Frank Doyle's story "A Slight Hitch" promises the kind of breezy romantic comedy that made That Wilkin Boy such a reliable good time.
