Archie Comics Digest #217
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "A Little Bugged!," Valerie and Melody swing by the Chok'lit Shoppe with a surprise request: they want the Archies to back the Pussycats on a new record. Reggie’s infatuation with Melody keeps him smiling through every mishap she causes—accidents, chaos, and all. Written by Dick Malmgren and brought to life with Dan DeCarlo’s signature art, Rudy Lapick’s inks, Barry Grossman’s colors, and Bill Yoshida’s lettering, this 2005 digests-style tale captures the sweet, silly charm of Riverdale’s favorite band. Stan Goldberg and Bob Smith deliver the playful cover.
When Reggie and Archie take Betty and Veronica golfing, the girls discover a surprising passion for the sport—so much so that they start spending all their time on the course, leaving the boys to wonder what happened to their usual hangouts.
In "Think Jinx," Valerie and Melody visit the Chok'lit Shoppe hoping the Archies will join the Pussycats on a record, but Reggie’s crush on Melody makes him surprisingly unfazed by the chaos she stirs—especially when her presence turns every moment into a whirlwind of mishaps.
