World of Archie (Jumbo Comics) Double Digest #85
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "The Case of Hiding in Plain Sight!", Archie’s romantic hopes hang on a single phone number—until snowfall and a lost slip of paper turn a simple date into a comedic quest. With Jughead holding the key to the number, Archie must prove he’s willing to earn his chance, one shovel full at a time. Written by Craig Boldman and illustrated by Rex Lindsey, with inks by Rich Koslowski, colors by Barry Grossman, and letters by Bill Yoshida, this Double Digest tale captures the classic charm of Riverdale with a winter twist. The cover by Pat Kennedy, Tim Kennedy, and Bob Smith perfectly captures the season’s quiet chaos.
When Archie Andrews keeps sneaking into the Lodge Mansion despite Hiram Lodge’s strict orders, the wealthy patriarch turns to private detective Sam Hill to uncover the truth. With Veronica watching closely and the mansion’s secrets running deep, Sam must untangle how Archie is slipping past every guard and rule—right under everyone’s nose.
In "Top Secret," Jughead Jones finds himself unexpectedly in the crosshairs of a classroom mystery when the girls in Miss Grundy's English class launch a full-scale investigation into his essay on "Dating Disasters and How To Avoid Them." With Archie Andrews caught in the middle and Mr. Weatherbee looming nearby, Jughead must keep his secrets close—especially when the truth might just be the most explosive thing in school.
Archie Andrews is smitten after getting a girl’s phone number—though he never learns her name—so he sets out to shovel snow to afford a date. When he loses the number, Jughead Jones finds it but insists Archie keep working to earn money for food instead.
When Reggie and Veronica skip rehearsal to hit the slopes, the rest of The Archies are left scrambling to cover their gig at the resort—leading to a chaotic, snow-covered musical mishap with more laughs than notes.
