“A Trust Thing”

In "A Trust Thing," Archie #578 (2007) presents a familiar small-town showdown with a twist: Fred Andrews, fired up over a proposed tax hike to fund the local park, decides to run for City Council. Opposing him is Hal Cooper, who sees the tax increase as a smart investment in community space. With families split down the middle and the campaign heating up, the issue captures the quiet drama of civic life through the lens of Riverdale’s signature charm. Written by Bill Golliher and brought to life with vibrant art by Stan Goldberg, inks by Bob Smith, and colors by Barry Grossman, the cover by Goldberg and Smith perfectly frames the tension.
