Archie Archives #3
"Christmas Cheers" brings a delightfully chaotic holiday twist to Riverdale’s usual antics, with Archie facing a case of mistaken identity after a Friday the 13th punch from Reggie sends him home with a bruise. While Jughead spins a tale about a toothache to Miss Grundy, the misunderstanding snowballs—leading to a hospital visit that nearly ends in surgery when Archie accidentally climbs into another patient’s bed. Written by Ed Goggin and brought to life with classic charm by artists Harry Sahle and Janice Valleau, this festive tale is a must-read for fans of Archie’s offbeat humor. Cover by Harry Sahle.
