The Mad House Glads #89

This Giant-sized Archie Series humor digest from 1973 delivers a colorful cover by Dan DeCarlo packed with four gag panels — a smooth teen flirting with a blonde cashier at a checkout counter, a kid quizzing his newspaper-reading pop about a missing rock record, and a pair of teens bickering at a gas station — all set against a swirling psychedelic background with a rocking band nestled in the masthead. The cover teases a fairy-tale parody inside: "Don't Miss Brother Clyde's Version of Jack and the Beanstalk, Entitled… 'Danny and the Dimwit'!" At a quarter a copy, this cheerful slice of early-'70s teen comedy captures everything that made the Mad House Glads a reliably fun corner of the Archie universe.
