Meant to be a resourceful "everywoman" to contrast with Adventure Comics' lead character, Supergirl...
Tracey Thompson and her comic relief BFF Betsy were introduced in this never-reprinted backup tale from DC's Adventure Comics #401 (1971)!
Written and penciled by Mike Sekowsky and inked by Frank Giacoia, this story was the first in a projected series, but only this and another tale in the next issue were ever published!
Were there others in any stage of production when the project was abandoned?
Could any of them have been reworked with different characters and used?
Since all the involved creatives have passed from this mortal coil, we'll never know!

Happy Halloween!
Too bad some industrious creator doesn't write up a few more stories and set them in the early 70s! Could be fun! I think I got that comic in the mid-70s and read it in the back of my parents car on vacation one summer! Thanks for reprinting this!
