☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "Fruit Salad," Archie finds himself in a sticky situation when he forgets his wallet at home—just as Mary had warned. Now he’s got to sneak into his room to retrieve it without letting her know she was right, all while Fred’s trying to keep the peace. Written by Frank Doyle and brought to life by Harry Lucey’s expressive art, with Chic Stone’s inks, Barry Grossman’s colors, and Bill Yoshida’s lettering, this 1979 slice of Riverdale life captures the quiet chaos of teenage mishaps with a familiar, heartfelt charm. Cover by Harry Lucey.
In "Growing Pains," Archie tries to sneak back into his house to retrieve his forgotten wallet without Mary noticing—especially since she’s been nagging him about small oversights lately. Fred, caught in the same dynamic, gives Archie a heads-up when Mary starts reminding him of things, setting off a quiet game of avoid-the-mom.
