Written by Dick Malmgren and brought to life with expressive art by Gus Lemoine, inks by Joe Sinnott, and vibrant colors by Barry Grossman, this 1972 story captures a quiet moment of growing up. The cover, by Stan Goldberg and Jon D'Agostino, hints at the day's events with a familiar, heartfelt scene.
Alice navigates a whirlwind of teenage romance and self-discovery in a story where love isn’t always what it seems—especially when the most charming gestures come with a surprising past.
In "Operation Didit," Fran pedals fifteen miles to visit Dan and Dippy, only to be left behind when they refuse to give her a ride home—until a sudden storm and a fallen tree leave her stranded with her crushed bike, forcing the trio to reckon with their choices.
