Archie #483

Archie and Jughead are thoroughly tangled in billowing sheets of pink wallpaper, paintbrushes in hand, while a horrified Mr. and Mrs. Andrews look on from the doorway — and the cover's speech bubble says it all: "Maybe paying them $20 to do it WASN'T such a great bargain!" Stan Goldberg's pencils and Henry Scarpelli's inks wring every ounce of slapstick out of the home-improvement disaster unfolding before us. If you enjoy watching Riverdale's most well-meaning redhead turn a simple decorating job into cheerful chaos, this 1999 issue delivers that familiar charm in abundance.
