Archie... Archie Andrews, Where Are You? Comics Digest Magazine #88
In "Summer Bummer," Betty’s mission to buy barbecue supplies takes an unexpected turn when she runs into Jughead at the store—just as her dad warned her not to. With the promise of a surprise party hanging in the balance, her attempt to keep the secret from him is already in jeopardy. Written by Kathleen Webb and illustrated by Stan Goldberg, with inks by Rudy Lapick and colors by Barry Grossman, this 1993 issue captures the classic charm of Riverdale with a dash of comedic tension. The cover, penciled by Goldberg and inked by Henry Scarpelli, perfectly captures the moment of awkward anticipation.
