Archie's TV Laugh-Out #36

Dec 1975 · Archie · 0.25 USD
“Bicentennial Banter”

In "Bicentennial Banter," Melody kicks off a citywide anti-litter campaign with a dramatic trash truck protest at city hall—only to leave the cleanup to the boys, who end up piling the mess into Alex’s car. Written by Frank Doyle and brought to life with Dan DeCarlo’s signature style, Rudy Lapick’s inks, Barry Grossman’s colors, and Bill Yoshida’s lettering, this 1975 slice of Archie fun features a lively mix of humor and chaos. The cover by Stan Goldberg and Jon D'Agostino captures the scene’s zany energy perfectly.
