The Jughead Jones Comics Digest #50
In "The Takeover," Archie finds himself unexpectedly thrust into the world of corporate power when Fred hands him a share of a company owned by Mr. Lodge—much to his delight, and soon, his dismay. As the newest "shareholder," Archie’s vote becomes the deciding factor in a critical boardroom showdown, forcing him to confront the weight of responsibility he never asked for. Written by Dick Malmgren and brought to life with classic flair by Sal Amendola, Rudy Lapick, Barry Grossman, and Bill Yoshida, with a cover by Dan DeCarlo, this 1988 issue captures Archie’s signature mix of humor and awkward overreach.
