Reggie and Me #26

The beach setting on this 1967 Archie Series cover says it all — Reggie stands in the sunshine holding up a mirror and beaming at his own reflection, while Archie and Veronica lounge on a blanket nearby, delivering the perfectly timed punchline: ask how to spell "conceit" and the answer is R-E-G-G-I-E. Cover pencils by Bill Vigoda and inks by Mario Acquaviva capture the breezy, sun-soaked humor that made this series such a delight, with a camera on a tripod nearby suggesting Reggie's self-admiration knows no limits. Interior work from the creative team of Frank Doyle, Dan DeCarlo, Rudy Lapick, and Bill Yoshida promises the kind of sharp, affectionate comedy that Riverdale fans were turning to the stands for in droves.
