When Mr. Weatherbee discovers a long-lost letter from Archie—meant to be a farewell confession—he’s drawn into a quiet, tender memory of a boy who once thought he’d be leaving Riverdale. Written and illustrated by Joe Edwards, with inks by Mario Acquaviva and lettering by the same, the story unfolds with warmth and sincerity. The cover, by Dan DeCarlo, captures the lighthearted spirit of the moment.
In "Lip Service," Archie finds himself in a heated debate with Mr. Lodge over the merits of their favorite music, leading to a chaotic mishap when an electric guitar takes a dive into the pool—right into Mr. Lodge. With the situation escalating, Archie springs into action with a surprising act of first aid, delivering mouth to mouth resuscitation in the most awkward moment yet.
In "The Cockamamie Box," Riverdale’s annual chaos of reclaimed confiscated items brings a surprising moment when Mr. Weatherbee discovers a long-lost letter addressed to him—written by Archie during a time he thought he’d be leaving town. Archie pleads with him not to read it, hinting at a heartfelt confession he never got around to delivering, and the story unfolds with the kind of sweet, awkward sincerity that only Riverdale’s school halls can inspire.
When a sneeze strikes at the worst possible moment, Archie’s desperate scramble to reach a handkerchief is derailed by a stubborn locker—and a lock that’s seen better days. The tale of how that lock ended up hacked off is a classic case of teenage chaos, one sneeze at a time.
In "The Pageant," Miss Grundy teams up with the students to put on a Fourth of July celebration, turning the school into a festive stage. When Mr. Weatherbee invites the school superintendent to attend, the whole class scrambles to make sure everything goes perfectly.
Archie’s sudden decision to attend summer school shocks his usual crew, but his unexpected motivation sparks a surprising chain reaction—soon, even the most laid-back students are signing up, all inspired by his unlikely resolve.
