A lighthearted moment of social comedy, this story captures a rare, grounded glimpse into Mr. Lodge’s everyday life, with the cover by Stan Goldberg and Jon D'Agostino bringing the scene to life in vibrant detail.
In "The Lasting Impression," Mr. Lodge delivers a surprisingly heartfelt speech to Riverdale High, earning the students' respect—until they spot him browsing a thrift shop, where he’s quietly shopping for clothes he’d never admit to owning. The moment is both awkward and oddly endearing, as Jo and the others grapple with the gap between their idealized image of the principal and the man behind the suit.
