Archie's Double Digest Magazine #33
In "The Comedy Club," a 1988 Double Digest gem, Archie's ever-enthusiastic Samantha finds herself in a sticky situation when Mr. Smythe warns her against wild parties—just as a stranded school bus full of children rolls up to his doorstep. With Dan DeCarlo's signature charm on the pencils and Dick Malmgren scripting the antics, this lighthearted tale captures the kind of wholesome chaos only Riverdale can deliver, all wrapped in a cover by DeCarlo that’s as bright and bold as the story inside.
