Archie Annual Digest #36
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "Popular Demand," the trio of Muscateers—Archos, Jugos, and Bethos—rally to thwart Count Reggio’s sinister plot, aided by the cunning Princess Veronica, daughter of King Melvin of France. With Dan DeCarlo’s dynamic cover capturing the swashbuckling spirit, this 1980 adventure blends royal intrigue and daring escapades, all brought to life by Frank Doyle’s storytelling and Stan Goldberg’s vibrant art.
In "Calm and Collected," Jughead hatches a quiet plan to get Reggie to help him clean out a garage—offering half of $10 in exchange. Reggie, determined to rest up for his big evening party, refuses, unaware that Jughead’s casual suggestion of a scavenger hunt will lead everyone straight to that very garage.
In "The Three Muscateers," Archos, Jugos, and Bethos take on the cunning Count Reggio, whose dark schemes threaten the kingdom of France—especially as the fair Princess Veronica appears to be playing a dangerous game from within the royal court. With swashbuckling flair and classic Archie-style humor, the trio races to uncover the truth before treachery takes hold.
In "No Help Wanted," Archie's dad scores two tickets to a big boxing match, but Archie’s already promised to take Veronica out—until Jughead steps in to help. After a series of miscommunications and last-minute shifts in plans, Jughead ends up with the tickets, and Veronica, unexpectedly, agrees to let Archie go. What follows is a lighthearted twist when Jughead and Veronica cross paths and decide to make the most of the situation—without Archie.
In "The Fall Guy," Archie and Reggie’s antics take a dangerous turn when Mr. Weatherbee catches them leaning out of the biology window. Regaining his composure, Reggie hatches a mischievous plan involving the biology manikin to make Archie the fall guy—literally.
In "Hit the Deck!", the whole school goes full pirate for the annual dance, turning the gym into a swashbuckling spectacle—except for Mr. Weatherbee, who’s initially unimpressed. As the chaos unfolds, even the principal can’t resist the fun, and soon he’s caught up in the adventure, one eye patch and eye-roll at a time.
