In "Rate-a-Mate," Riverdale’s latest mystery unfolds as a string of bank robberies—perpetrated by strange automatons—has the town on edge.

Written by Bob Bolling and illustrated by Doug Crane, with colors by Barry Grossman and letters by Bill Yoshida, this 2000 issue brings classic Archie charm to a sci-fi twist, all wrapped in a cover by Stan Goldberg and Jon D'Agostino.
