Laugh Comics / Laugh #376
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "Can You Top This?", Veronica throws a western-style birthday bash that quickly turns into a playful showdown when Mr. Lodge divides the gang into traditional gender roles—girls in a cook-off, boys on a mechanical bull. But when the teens refuse to be boxed in, chaos and creativity erupt in equal measure. Written by George Gladir and brought to life with vibrant energy by Stan Goldberg (art and cover), this 1983 Laugh Comics issue captures the spirit of Archie’s teen antics with a fresh twist, all in a 60-cent comic from the early '80s.
In "Buckaroo Fever," Jo and her friends at Veronica's western-themed birthday bash find themselves split into traditional gender roles—girls in a cook-off, boys on a mechanical bull—only to show Mr. Lodge that today’s teens aren’t so easily boxed in. The story captures the playful spirit of a classic teen comic moment, where expectations get flipped with a wink and a grin.
When space alien bureaucrat Zorglax kidnaps Maureen and Clarissa to force them into a high-stakes planetary traffic control role, the duo finds themselves trapped in a malfunctioning dissection machine—just as their wits and a hidden mineral secret might be their only hope.
