Archie's Double Digest Magazine #148

In "Buggin," Archie faces a holiday dilemma when he can't afford the fishing reel he wants to give his dad for Christmas—until Dilton introduces him to his grandfather, a legendary fisherman whose unexpected gift not only solves the problem but leaves Archie amazed. Written by Mike Pellowski and brought to life with Stan Goldberg’s vibrant art and Rudy Lapick’s crisp inks, this heartwarming tale captures the spirit of the season with a touch of small-town charm. The cover, by Stan Goldberg and Bob Smith, perfectly captures the story’s lighthearted tone.
