Archie (Jumbo Comics) Double Digest #281
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "It's All Relative!", Archie and the gang discover the thrill of handheld video games—only to find their enthusiasm waning when Jughead proves they’re not quite the same as real-life fun. Meanwhile, the girls challenge the boys to a game that no digital screen can replicate: a kiss. Written by George Gladir and brought to life with vibrant art by Stan Goldberg, Rudy Lapick, Barry Grossman, and Bill Yoshida, this Double Digest tale captures the timeless charm of teenage antics. The cover by Tim Kennedy and Bob Smith perfectly captures the lighthearted spirit of the story.
Archie's Uncle Roy, a self-made success who never finished high school, surprises everyone by deciding to return to Riverdale High and re-enroll as a student. Now facing the same hallways and classmates as his nephew Archie, Roy’s fresh start brings both humor and heart to the familiar halls of Riverdale.
In "Archie Marries Valerie: Part Four The Finale! Here and Now!", Val takes a nostalgic stroll through memories as Archie and Valerie share a moment with Star’s heartfelt performance on stage, and Josie and the Pussycats celebrate a chart-topping hit—though the path to their future isn’t without its bumps.
In "Say Cheese," Mr. Lodge is named Riverdale's Citizen of the Year, and for once, he’s trying to keep his cool—especially when Archie’s around and the cameras are rolling. The real challenge? Staying polite when the boy who’s always in his way is just one misstep away from ruining the moment.
