Archie at Riverdale High #16

In "Stick Shift," Veronica hatches a bold plan to revive Riverdale’s fading infrastructure by renaming the town "Lodgeville"—a move she hopes will convince her father to fund a major rebuild. While most of the town rallies behind the idea, Archie finds himself stuck in the middle, unsure if the change is worth the cost. Written by Frank Doyle and brought to life with Dan DeCarlo’s signature style, Rudy Lapick’s inks, Barry Grossman’s colors, and Bill Yoshida’s lettering, this 1974 classic features a cover by Stan Goldberg and Jon D'Agostino.
