Archie and Me #136

The cover of this 1982 installment poses a relatable question right on the cover: "If life is like a game, how come I'm not having any fun?" — and Stan Goldberg's pencils answer it with a clever Monopoly-style board where Archie finds himself landed among spaces like "Late for School — Detention," "Surprise Test — You're Not Prepared," and the dreaded "Disaster Cards: Your Date Stands You Up." A scowling Mr. Weatherbee looms over the board while chaos erupts in the background, setting a wonderfully comedic tone for the story inside. Writer-artist Joe Edwards brings his signature warmth to "Generation Gasp," making this a charming slice of Riverdale life that captures teenage frustrations with a light, playful touch.
