Reggie and Me #82

Riverdale's most self-satisfied schemer takes center stage in this 1975 entry from Archie's long-running Reggie and Me series. The cover drops us into a "Red Barn Theater Summer Stock Frolics" setting, where a blonde girl delivers a perfectly timed zinger — "That's the first ventriloquist act I've seen with TWO dummies!" — aimed at Reggie, who stands confidently beside a boy operating a ventriloquist dummy, while a dark-haired girl lounges nearby with a knowing smirk. Up top, a second vignette adds to the fun with more familiar Riverdale teens gathered around a wishing well, making for a cover that packs in plenty of comedic chaos for a quarter.
