Archie's Joke Book Magazine #63

The cover of this July 1962 issue sets up the gag perfectly: Archie, dressed as an angel complete with halo and wings, is seated on a bench beside Veronica in a Native American costume, who pointedly tells him, "Archie, you're not behaving like one!" — a punchline that says everything about Riverdale's favorite redhead. In the background, a couple more costumed partygoers hint at a festive gathering, making the joke land all the more sweetly. At 12 cents, this issue of Archie's Joke Book Magazine delivers the lighthearted, grin-worthy humor the series was known for in 1962.
