Title
A name given to the resource
Archie's Girls Betty and Veronica, no. 23
Description
An account of the resource
As the cover to this issue makes clear, <em>Archie's Girls Betty and Veronica</em> focuses on the romantic high-school shenanigans between the blonde girl-next-door Betty Cooper, the brunette Veronica Lodge, daughter of the wealthiest family in Riverdale, and the redheaded typical teenager Archie Andrews. Archie first appeared in 1941, in <em>Pep Comics #22</em>, and the series <em>Archie</em> began a year later in 1942. <em>Archie's Girls Betty and Veronica</em> was the second <em>Archie</em> spin-off series, beginning in 1950, one year after <em>Archie's Pal Jughead</em>. As Bart Beaty notes, "while Archie comics were always popular with a young female audience, [<em>Archie's Girls Betty and Veronica</em>] heightened that appeal with its emphasis on the female costars, and it quickly emerged as the second-most-popular title behind Archie, averaging well over three hundred thousand copies sold per month" by the 1960s (14). (Reference: Bart Beaty, <em>Twelve-Cent Archie</em>. New Brunswick: Rutgers UP, 2015.)

Title
A name given to the resource
Little Archie, no. 1
Description
An account of the resource
This Archie Comics series was initially written and penciled by Bob Bolling, with inks by Bob White, and it would be published with some name changes until 1983. Featuring child versions of the teenage Archie characters, this first issues of the series draws on classic Archie themes, such as romance and driving, but puts a childish and slapstick-driven spin on them. In later years, the series would take shift to spookier subject matter, focusing less on romance and more on horror. As Bart Beaty notes, "<em>Little Archie</em> was considerably darker than anything else that Archie Comics published [in the 1960s], ironic given the fact that the title seemed intended for readers who were presumed to be too young for the regular series" (170). (Reference: Bart Beaty, <em>Twelve-Cent Archie</em>. New Brunswick: Rutgers UP, 2015.)

Little Lotta, no. 3
Description
An account of the resource
Little Lotta Plump was one of Harvey Comics' consistent characters, along with Little Audrey, Little Dot, and Richie Rich. Much of the humor in Little Lotta's comic book adventures comes from the incredible strength that she gets from eating massive amounts of food, as demonstrated on this issue's cover. Lotta's superhuman ability to eat is put to the test in this issue, when she dreams that she has eaten an entire whale, thus spoiling her appetite.

Title
A name given to the resource
Mad, no. 27
Description
An account of the resource
<em>Mad</em> was initially a comic book, and it converted to a magazine format in 1955 with issue #24. The elaborate frame on this cover was drawn by Harvey Kurtzman, <em>Mad's</em> founding editor, and it features the magazine's mascot, Alfred E. Neuman, and his catchphrase, "What, me worry?" Jack Davis painted the cover, which depicts the "new year" 1956 walking through a crowd of caricatures. As William Stout notes, "Davis developed the ability to draw, design, and clearly organize vast humorous crowds in a single picture, a skill that would pay off enormously once he started painting movie posters" (5). Indeed, Davis would go on to draw not just movie posters, but also album covers and illustrations for <em>Time</em> and <em>TV Guide</em>. (Reference: William Stout, "Jack Davis: Master of the Quick Draw," <em>Jack Davis: Drawing American Pop Culture</em>. Seattle: Fantagraphics, 2011. 5-7.)
