Life with Archie #11
In "The Invaders," aliens from the planet Virus descend on Earth to assess it for conquest—only to misjudge humanity’s youth as its rulers. Abducting Archie and his friends, the extraterrestrials are unexpectedly outmaneuvered when the teens infect them with Earth’s latest trends, from rock 'n' roll to teenage slang. Written by Sy Reit and illustrated by Bob White, with inks by Marty Epp and lettering by Marty Epp, this 1961 classic features a cover by Bob White that captures the zany sci-fi clash.
