Archie 3000 #5

Set a millennium away in a far-future Riverdale, Archie 3000 #5 drops Archie and the gang into the Riverdale Science Lab, where a chaotic demonstration of the "Sound-Wave-A-Tron" has sent a whole menagerie of dogs, cats, and other animals scrambling in every direction. Cover artist Dan Parent and inker Rudy Lapick pack the scene with bright, kinetic energy — Archie marveling at his freshly cleaned hands while a dark-haired companion urges him to "take a look" at the furry mayhem unfolding around them. It's a cheerful slice of futuristic Riverdale silliness that captures exactly why this 1989 series was such a fun spin on the classic Archie formula.
