In "Don't Look Now," a quiet moment between Terry and Joe takes an unexpected turn when his need for a party date accidentally hurts her feelings—until a surprising twist reveals their entire exchange was a playful setup. The story, drawn in a crisp, expressive style by John Stanley (who also handled the cover), captures a small, sweet moment of miscommunication and mutual affection with a wink. A 15-cent comic from 1962, it’s a charming slice of early teen romance from Dell’s Thirteen series.

Judy

In "Posing in Mirror," Judy steps into a tailor shop window, only to see a distorted, pudgy version of herself and frown. As she walks away, another woman gazes at the same glass and recoils at her own exaggerated reflection. When Judy returns, the mirror now shows her as impossibly thin—and she beams with delight. The story uses the funhouse mirror’s tricks to quietly explore how we see ourselves, one glance at a time.
