Archie's Joke Book Magazine #118

This November 1967 issue of Archie's Joke Book Magazine captures a wonderfully chaotic bit of mistaken-identity humor right on its cover: the gang gets mobbed by screaming fans who thought they were the Rolling Stones, leaving Archie and the boys tumbling in a pile of scattered hats and souvenirs outside the stage entrance. Dan DeCarlo's cover art is full of expressive energy, with Betty, Veronica, and the rest of the crowd caught mid-frenzy across two panels that tell the whole joke before you even open the book. A fun snapshot of 1960s Beatlemania-era comedy done in Riverdale's cheerfully exaggerated style.
