In "Believing Not Grieving," Archie faces a holiday dilemma when he's heartbroken over not having enough money to buy Christmas gifts. A mysterious elf from Santa’s workshop offers him a strange chance: reach into a garbage bag, and whatever he pulls out will be the perfect present for someone he cares about. Written and illustrated by Dick Malmgren, with inks by Jon D'Agostino, colors by Barry Grossman, and letters by Bill Yoshida, this heartfelt 1982 tale captures the spirit of giving with a touch of whimsy. The cover, penciled and inked by Dan DeCarlo, captures the story’s quiet magic.
