“London Britches”

A charming slice of small-town teen life, this 1953 issue of Pep Comics finds a smitten, heart-encircled Archie at the soda counter, whispering to Jughead for a word that rhymes with "Cupid" — while Veronica sips her milkshake nearby, blissfully unaware. Jughead's deadpan reply ("STUPID!") says everything, and the whole scene captures that warm, comedic chemistry that made Archie "America's Top Teen-Ager." Bill Vigoda's cover art is full of personality, and with "All New Stories" promised inside, this ten-cent gem delivers a genuinely delightful package.
