Tales from Riverdale Digest #8
In "Mixed-Up Media!", the girls’ holiday shopping takes a hilariously awkward turn when Melody tries to return a bikini she claims covers too much—only to find the store’s customers are far more impressed than she expected. Written by Frank Doyle and illustrated by Dan De Carlo with inks by Rudy Lapick and letters by Bill Yoshida, this 2006 digest tale captures the classic Archie charm with a playful twist on perception and modesty. The cover by Fernando Ruiz and Jon D'Agostino adds a splash of whimsy to the misadventure.
