The Jughead Jones Comics Digest #16
In "Cutting Edge," a movie star arrives in Riverdale to film a scene at the high school, casting Mr. Weatherbee in a role that paints him as a bumbling hick—much to Archie’s dismay. When the production threatens to humiliate the principal, Archie steps in to protect his school’s dignity, leading to a lighthearted clash between Hollywood and small-town pride. Written by Frank Doyle and illustrated by Stan Goldberg with inks by Jon D'Agostino and letters by Bill Yoshida, this 1981 classic features a cover by Dan DeCarlo.
