Archie at Riverdale High #36

Coach Kleats appears to be heading off — luggage in hand, waving a bittersweet farewell at the bus stop — while Archie and the Riverdale High gang look on with genuine dismay in this charming 1976 slice of small-town high school life. The cover teases a story built around whether a "nice guy" coach can change his fortunes, with the promise that Archie helps him learn to "Smile and Show Your Teeth." It's a warm, character-driven setup that captures everything endearing about the Riverdale crew at their most earnest.
