“Stay Calm and Compost”

This April 1992 "Environmental Special" finds Archie Andrews sweating behind a push mower while his dad cheerfully explains to a curious neighbor that the lawn mower isn't solar powered — it's son powered. Dan DeCarlo's pencils and Alison Flood's inks bring the gag to life with that warm, clean Riverdale charm, and the upper corner even spotlights the familiar gang peeking in. Printed on 100% recycled paper, this eco-conscious issue pairs its green message with the kind of gentle family humor that makes Archie comics such an enduring pleasure.
