Archie #253
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "Tarbland of the Grapes," Archie stars as the indolent jungle king Tarbland, content to lounge and snack on grapes while ruling his lush domain. Veronica arrives as the glamorous Slinky von Gotgelt, drawn to Tarbland’s laid-back charm—and his endless supply of fruit.
In "Cartastrophe," Archie gives Old Betsy a flashy new look with an instant car kit, turning her into a head-turning showpiece—though her shaky frame and unreliable engine remain as unchanged as ever.
