Richie Rich Dollars and Cents Vol. 1 #91 (1972)
A long-running Harvey Comics staple showcasing the peak era of Richie Rich’s early ‘70s popularity.

Published by Harvey Comics in October 1972. Written by Sid Jacobson, penciled/inked by Ernie Colón, colors and cover art by Warren Kremer.
In this issue, Richie once again finds himself balancing enormous wealth with everyday challenges, as inventive gadgets, extravagant allowances, and lessons in responsibility drive the story forward. When a financial misunderstanding spirals into a larger predicament, Richie uses ingenuity rather than extravagance to resolve the conflict, reinforcing the title’s ongoing theme that character outweighs currency. As part of Harvey’s early 1970s publishing slate, this issue reflects the company’s refined house style of clean linework, expressive characters, and tightly structured humor-adventure storytelling, making it a representative installment from the height of the character’s sustained newsstand presence.

Published by Cupples & Leon in 1934.
Written and illustrated by Gene Byrnes, with cover art by Gene Byrnes.
This issue presents the comic book debut of Gene Byrnes’ popular newspaper strip characters, the Reg’lar Fellers, translating the everyday misadventures of a small-town American boyhood into the emerging comic book format. Centered on the earnest and often impulsive Danny Webster and his neighborhood companions, the stories chronicle youthful rivalries, clubhouse politics, and lessons learned through mischief and mishap. Reflecting the tone of early 20th century newspaper humor, the material preserves the strip’s gentle satire and period vernacular while offering collectors a glimpse into the transitional era when established comic strips were first repackaged for a growing juvenile readership during the 1930s.

Published by DC Comics in September 1974.
Written by Robert Kanigher, penciled by John Calnan, inked by Jack Abel, colored by Tatjana Wood, with cover art by Joe Kubert.
In this issue of Weird War Tales, DC continues its distinctive fusion of traditional war comics and supernatural storytelling. Set against the backdrop of global conflict, the story follows soldiers confronting not only the enemy across the battlefield but also an eerie, otherworldly presence that challenges their understanding of courage and fate. As the tension escalates, the narrative explores themes of inevitability and moral consequence, hallmarks of the title’s Bronze Age direction under editor Joe Kubert. Known for its moody atmosphere and stark visual storytelling, this period of the series remains a notable chapter in DC’s experimentation with horror-infused war anthologies.
