Laugh Comics Digest / Laugh Comics Digest Magazine / Laugh Digest Magazine #55

In "Riverside Lament," Melody’s accidental stroll through town in a flashy chorus-girl outfit sends every man she passes into a series of increasingly chaotic mishaps—much to the dismay of Alex, Josie, and Pepper, who must track her down before the whole town descends into comedic mayhem. Written by Frank Doyle and brought to life with Dan DeCarlo’s signature style—pencils and inks by DeCarlo, with Rudy Lapick on inks—this 1984 Laugh Comics Digest Magazine issue delivers classic Archie-style humor with a delightfully absurd premise. The cover, also by Dan DeCarlo, captures the chaos in full swing.
