Josie #32
In "Bust Out," Jo and her friends are caught in a web of misunderstanding when Melody casually quotes a school rule about dogs—only for Pepper to be suddenly accused of breaking it, whether she meant to or not. Written by Frank Doyle and illustrated by Dan DeCarlo, this 1968 Archie classic captures the chaos of schoolyard rumors with a touch of classic humor, all framed by Dan DeCarlo’s dynamic cover art and Rudy Lapick’s crisp inks.
