Archie's Double Digest Magazine #161
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "The Daydream Comes True!", Veronica’s heartfelt attempt to knit Archie a sweater takes a hilarious turn when Reggie’s teasing sparks a fight that ruins the gift—leading to a surprisingly heated rift between Archie and Veronica, with a surprising twist in who she’ll now choose to knit for. Written and illustrated by Dick Malmgren, this charmingly offbeat story captures the classic Archie charm with a touch of sweater-based drama, all brought to life in a vibrant cover by Stan Goldberg and Bob Smith.
When Archie's unexpected agility helps the team win a volleyball game, Reggie and Moose are convinced his secret is ballet—so they sign up for lessons too, hoping to pull off the same trick.
Veronica tries her hand at knitting a sweater for Archie, but her stitches are anything but perfect. When Reggie mocks the result, a heated argument sparks between him and Archie, leading to the sweater’s destruction—and Veronica’s sudden vow to only knit for Reggie from now on.
