Archie Giant Series Magazine #22

A crowd of laughing, energized Riverdale teens — Archie and the gang among them — comes pouring out of Riverdale High School in a burst of end-of-school joy on Samm Schwartz's lively 1963 cover. Someone in the crowd quips that Riverdale already has its own "population explosion," setting the playful comedic tone perfectly for this oversized jokes-and-laughs edition. At a generous 25 cents, this Archie Giant Series entry delivers a warm, fun slice of early-'60s Riverdale charm.
