Tales from Riverdale Digest #27

Archie Andrews stumbles upon a treasure trove of vintage comics at a convention, including a mysterious box of Mighty Crusaders issues sold by Mr. Weatherbee. That night, as he flips through the pages, the heroes from the stories—Shield, Comet, Web, Black Jack, and Steel Sterling—step out of the comic book and into his backyard, facing off against a sinister legion of juggernauts.

When the Brain Emperor realizes he can't survive in Archie's world, he shifts his focus to Moose Mason—seeking a body strong in muscle but weak in mind. As the battle rages across Archie's front yard, the line between hero and villain blurs, and the Mighty Crusaders find themselves facing a new kind of threat from within.

Archie Andrews rallies the remaining Mighty Crusaders as their strength wanes and Moose Mason, under mind control, turns against them. With the villainous ranks closing in—including the Brain Emperor, Dream Demon, and Buzzard—Archie calls on reinforcements, summoning Mr. Justice and other Crusaders to turn the tide.

In "A Mighty Weird Crusade (Chapter Four)," Archie, Jughead, and a bewildered Moose find themselves caught in a supernatural showdown when Mr. Justice summons the legendary Mighty Crusaders and a menagerie of Riverdale's weirdest monsters to battle a villainous horde. With the Brain Emperor making a dramatic escape and the battlefield collapsing into chaos, the heroes are whisked back to their world—leaving the trio to piece together what they’ve just survived.

Josie and the Pussycats are wiped out from nonstop touring, but Alexander Cabot has a plan: a one-off gig at his uncle’s amusement park, soon to be rebranded with a full Pussycat theme. With Valerie, Melody, and Josie ready to trade the road for rollercoasters and neon lights, the band braces for a break that might just be the most chaotic vacation of their lives.
