Reggie and Me #123

A snowy winter setting provides the perfect backdrop for this 1980 Archie Comics entry, where Reggie faces a double dose of bad news — his license has expired, and a girl in a colorful winter outfit is quick to point out that his red jalopy looks just as done-for. The lively exchange between the three teens on the cover, with that smoking wreck of a car behind them, captures the cheerful comedic spirit that made Reggie and Me such an entertaining corner of Riverdale. With "The Dating Game" as the story inside, it's easy to imagine Reggie's smooth reputation taking a few more hits before the day is through.
