Reggie and Me #119

A school hallway full of Riverdale energy sets the scene on this 1979 entry in the long-running Reggie and Me series. Stan Goldberg and Rudy Lapick's cover finds Reggie boasting to a group of classmates that he's taking a course on "the Art of Speaking," while Archie and Betty nearby deliver the perfect punchline — what Reggie really needs is a course on "the Art of Silence." It's the kind of warm, witty character comedy that made this series a reliable treat, with Frank Doyle's story "The Wheelies" waiting inside to keep the laughs rolling.
