Archie at Riverdale High #96

This 1984 installment of Archie at Riverdale High tackles a genuinely relevant subject, as the cover — penciled by Stan Goldberg — shows a group of tough-looking teens outside Riverdale High taunting Archie with an offer to smoke, while a worried friend urges him to hold back. Archie stands at the center of it all, Riverdale letter jacket in hand, clearly facing a moment of peer pressure as Jughead watches wide-eyed from above. With the story "Smokescreen at Riverdale High" promised inside, this issue shows the Archie gang confronting real-world temptations with the warmth and directness that made this series a staple.
