Archie's Pals 'n' Gals #176

In "Fashion Frolic," the Riverdale faculty takes a sartorial stand against the wild styles flooding the school from MTV, donning equally outrageous outfits to prove a point—only to find themselves unexpectedly outdone by the students' flair. Written by an unnamed creator and illustrated by an unnamed artist, this 5-page humor tale captures the classic teen chaos of Riverdale with a playful twist on style and self-expression.

In "Delayed Decision," Archie takes a hard hit during a casual kids' baseball game, leaving him unconscious and the outcome of the play in limbo—until he wakes up. The story captures a quiet moment of suspense and humor, centered on the simple yet timeless tension of waiting to see if the ball was a home run.
