World of Archie (Jumbo Comics) Double Digest #58
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "Thrills & Chills!", Archie steps in to help Mr. Weatherbee prepare an exhibit on his ancestors for the local library, only to uncover a surprising pattern: every one of Mr. Weatherbee’s forebears seemed to have someone just like Archie in their lives. Written by George Gladir and brought to life with Doug Crane’s expressive art, Barry Grossman’s vibrant colors, and Bill Yoshida’s crisp lettering, this fun, heartfelt tale blends small-town charm with a touch of whimsical mystery. The cover by Dan Parent and Bob Smith captures the lighthearted spirit of the story.
Archie convinces Jughead to ask out the new girl at school, but when Jughead accidentally ends up on double dates with both her and her twin, chaos — and cringeworthy misunderstandings — ensue.
When safety expert Kathy Hackney visits Riverdale High with Principal Weatherbee, her presence sends shockwaves through the student body—especially the boys. As she tours the school, every glance, every smile, sparks a cascade of mishaps, from dropped books to tangled gym equipment, leaving even the most careful students in chaos.
In "Garden of Evil," Archie Andrews teams up with Veronica Lodge to uncover the truth behind the mysterious destruction of Mr. Lodge’s prize-winning plants—just days before the big flower show. With Hiram Lodge furious and suspicion falling on Mr. Blackson, Archie must dig deeper to clear the name of the school’s groundskeeper and save the competition.
In "Claim to Fame," Archie Andrews lends a hand to Mr. Weatherbee as they prepare an exhibit on the Weatherbee family history for the local library—only to uncover a surprising pattern: every one of Mr. Weatherbee’s ancestors seems to have had someone just like Archie in their corner. With Jonathan Weatherbee, "Pie" Weatherbee, and even the legendary Sir William the Stouthearted part of the family lore, Archie starts to wonder if his presence isn’t just coincidence.
When Archie accidentally grabs a rare $1,000 stamp for Veronica’s letter, he unwittingly sets off a chain of chaos—especially after it’s revealed the stamp was part of Mr. Lodge’s prized collection. Now, with Jughead’s curiosity piqued, Betty’s practicality on high alert, and Reggie ready to exploit the situation, the whole gang is caught in a sticky web of mistaken identity and misplaced mail.
