☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "Voice Your Choice!", Prince James—wronged by his treacherous brother Richard—finds a new purpose when his spirit returns during World War II, determined to make amends and stand for what's right. Written by Paul Castiglia and illustrated by Chris Allan with inks by Bob Wiacek, this story blends historical drama with a touch of the supernatural, all wrapped in a cover by Rex W. Lindsey.
Archie tries to clear out his room by hosting a yard sale, but when a sudden gust of wind sends price tags flying, chaos ensues—tagging everything from the mailbox to the neighbor’s dog. It’s a simple setup with a perfectly messy payoff, all in a few pages of classic, offbeat humor.
When Reggie’s job hunt hits a dead end, Archie’s lawn care business is thriving—so much so that he might just have the ideal opening for Reggie’s talents. It’s a simple setup, but the real charm lies in how the two friends navigate their roles in a world where success isn’t always what it seems.
Archie is convinced a fortune teller’s curse has stolen his ability to play guitar, leaving him heartbroken and doubting himself. With Jo by his side, his friends rally to find a new fortune teller who might lift the spell and restore his confidence—before it’s too late.
In "The Lucky Coin," Little Archie’s cherished lucky coin vanishes at the circus, leaving him shaken and desperate. With Jughead’s help, he tracks down the thief—only to uncover a twist tied to the circus owner’s hidden scheme.
In "Word of Mouth," Little Betty’s attempt at baking ends in a mess of mud, much to Jughead’s dismay as he struggles to rid his mouth of the taste. While he’s still grimacing, Archie launches into his latest idea—starting a friendship club—sparking a moment of quiet curiosity among the group.
When a friendly alien gifts Little Archie and his band a mysterious square egg, it hatches into a tiny, musical creature named a Freebee. Though the Freebee’s tunes delight everyone, its soothing lullaby accidentally frightens a baby, leading to a misunderstanding that could end their new friendship.
In "Taking the Prize," the gang's talent show becomes a battleground of sabotage when Little Reggie tries to ruin everyone's acts—only to find his schemes unravel when Evelyn Evernever turns her sorrow into a moving performance that leaves the audience spellbound.
In "Dog Goned," Little Jughead treats himself and Hot Dog Jr. to a breakfast run at Pop Tate’s, but when he grabs an extra sandwich for lunch, the promise of that snack sets off a chain of events neither of them can quite control. With Hot Dog Jr. already counting the minutes, the day takes a turn no one saw coming.
Archie’s plans for a cozy night with Betty watching a romantic film take a sudden turn when they hear whispers of a suspicious stranger in Riverdale. With the town’s usual charm replaced by unease, the pair find themselves in a situation far more chilling than any horror movie.
In "null," Archie and Veronica bring Jughead a Juggy bag filled with leftover food, only for Archie to awkwardly ask if Jughead finds Ethel attractive. Miss Beazly, meanwhile, grows suspicious when she thinks Jughead’s taken too much from the lunch line.
Archie sets out to craft the perfect piece of furniture for Veronica, determined to impress her with his handywork. But every attempt goes awry, leading to a series of increasingly creative (and comically disastrous) detours—until, finally, he builds something just right. It’s just not quite the right scale.
Archie’s got everything planned for his big fishing trip—gear, snacks, even a backup rod—but in his excitement, he forgets the one thing that could ruin the whole day: his fishing license. With a mix of nerves and determination, he’s determined to make the most of the trip despite the oversight.
