Archie Comics Digest #31

Packed with stories, fun, puzzles, jokes, and laffs, this 1978 digest-format collection promises a full-color good time — and Archie himself says it right on the cover: "I hate to brag, but this book is outrageous!" The main cover scene finds a bedridden Reggie receiving a cheerful visit from Archie, Betty, and Veronica, only to have one visitor spring the comic twist of a homework assignment on the unsuspecting patient. With charming circular vignettes ringing the edges showing more Riverdale hijinks, this digest captures the warm, breezy humor that makes the gang so enduringly fun to spend time with.
