In "The Wild Ones," Archie and his friends’ peaceful day at Loon Lake takes a bizarre turn when strange, prehistoric creatures—legendary Gummi-Gammoo among them—start appearing out of nowhere. Written and illustrated by Bob Bolling, with inks by Rich Koslowski and colors by Barry Grossman, this 1998 adventure blends classic Archie charm with a splash of whimsical monster mayhem. The cover, by Stan Goldberg and Henry Scarpelli, captures the chaos in bold, nostalgic style.
