Life with Archie #141
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "The Blackmoor Emerald," the Archie gang dives into their favorite game of "Missing Person," only to find the stakes rise when Reggie vanishes—only to be discovered eating a spoiled cheese danish, turning a lighthearted chase into a race against food poisoning. Written by Frank Doyle and brought to life with vibrant energy by Stan Goldberg (art), Mario Acquaviva (inks), Barry Grossman (color), and Bill Yoshida (letters), this 1974 classic blends humor and heart with a twist that keeps the mystery—and the danger—very real. The cover, by Stan Goldberg and Jon D'Agostino, captures the tension with a perfectly timed moment of panic.
When Mr. Lodge inherits the Blackmoor Emerald from his late friend Sir Winthrop Throgbottom, he’s handed a dazzling gem with a dark reputation—one said to bring misfortune to every owner. Now, with the jewel in his possession, Archie and his friends must help navigate the strange chain of mishaps it seems to attract, all while keeping the mystery of the curse from unraveling.
When the gang plays "Missing Person" and Reggie vanishes into the city, their game quickly turns urgent—Jo and the others realize too late that Reggie’s disappearance isn’t part of the fun. He ate a spoiled cheese danish, and now finding him isn’t just about the game—it’s a race against time.
