Archie Americana Series #2
In "Winner Lose," Archie and Jughead find themselves in over their heads when the famous singer Purley Gates—Betty’s mother’s cousin’s nephew—visits Riverdale, leading the boys to desperately pretend they’ve never heard of him. With Harry Lucey’s expressive art capturing every awkward grin and whispered conspiracy, this 1992 slice of small-town charm features a cover by Rex W. Lindsey that perfectly mirrors the story’s mix of nerves and humor.
