Archie #433

Archie and Reggie are mid-stride outside Riverdale High School on this cheerful 1995 cover — Archie in his signature varsity jacket lamenting that he's "a little short" to ask Veronica out, while a smirking Reggie raises a finger to wonder whether he means short on brains or personality. The friendly back-and-forth banter captures everything endearing about these two, with cover art by Stan Goldberg and Rudy Lapick bringing the Riverdale gang's good-natured ribbing to life in bright, inviting color. Inside, writer Frank Doyle and artist Stan Goldberg deliver the kind of warmhearted humor that has made this series a perennial favorite.
