Archie's Joke Book Magazine #24

Archie's Joke Book Magazine #24 from September 1956 serves up a cheerful dose of Riverdale humor, with the cover strip showing Archie returning from a trip in his vintage red jalopy, calling out to Veronica — who warmly insists she's been so lonely without him. The joke unfolds across three panels as Veronica's alibi grows increasingly suspicious, rattling off a list of boys she claims were with Archie the whole time, leaving him flustered and wide-eyed. At a dime a copy, this is lighthearted, laugh-out-loud Archie comics at their most charming.
