☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "Easy Rider!", Archie takes Miss Grundy’s advice to heart and decides to base his next story on someone close to him—leading to a fun, behind-the-scenes look at life in Riverdale through his eyes. Written by Angelo DeCesare and brought to life with vibrant art by Stan Goldberg, inks by Bob Smith, and colors by Barry Grossman, this issue captures the charm and humor of Archie’s world with a fresh, character-driven twist. The cover by Goldberg and Smith perfectly captures the lighthearted spirit of the story.
In "The Scavengers," Betty comes up with a clever plan when Archie can’t afford a picnic—she turns it into a scavenger hunt, sending him around Riverdale to collect food items from their friends. With a mix of humor and heart, the story follows Archie’s quest to gather snacks, one awkward exchange at a time.
Archie’s got a writing assignment that’s got him stumped—Miss Grundy wants him to focus on character development, so she tells him to base a story on someone he knows. Now he’s scrambling to find the perfect real-life inspiration, and his usual antics are about to get even more tangled in the process.
