“The Initial Trouble”

In "The Initial Trouble," a letter in the Dear Blabby column from a Riverdale A.A. about a bossy, wealthy girlfriend stirs up trouble for Archie—though he didn’t write it—putting him at odds with Veronica. Written by Frank Doyle and illustrated by Dan DeCarlo Jr. with inks by Jim DeCarlo, colors by Barry Grossman, and letters by Bill Yoshida, this 1980 issue captures the classic charm of Riverdale with a touch of playful drama. The cover, penciled and inked by Dan DeCarlo, perfectly captures the moment’s tension.
