Archie Comics Digest #175

In "Strike a Pose," Veronica's cousin Valika brings the Riverdale gang to New York for a high-stakes photo shoot—only for the photographer to spot something unexpected in their chaotic energy. What starts as a behind-the-scenes gig turns into a full-blown media moment as Archie, Betty, Jughead, and the rest are thrust into the spotlight, embodying the "family values grunge" look that captivates the fashion world. Written and illustrated by Dan Parent, with inks by Rudy Lapick, colors by Barry Grossman, and letters by Bill Yoshida, the issue features a cover by Rex Lindsey.
