Archie's TV Laugh-Out #81

Astrology meets automotive chaos in this 1981 installment of Archie's TV Laugh-Out, where the cover shows Archie cheerfully warning Veronica from his rattling red jalopy that her horoscope predicts "bad vibrations" — a prophecy that proves immediately, hilariously accurate as the car shudders and chugs its way into trouble. Veronica, astrology book in hand and looking justifiably alarmed, watches the whole scene unfold with perfect comic timing, while the header banner reminds readers this is the Archie Comics universe at its most entertainingly crowded, nodding to The Archies, Josie and the Pussycats, and Sabrina. Stan Goldberg's cover linework captures that breezy, good-natured energy that made this series a reliable treat.
