Archie's Parables

In the mid-1970s, writer/artist Al Hartley brought his signature, wholesome style to a unique collaboration between Archie Comics and the Fleming H. Revell Company. This single-issue comic reimagines the classic Archie gang in a series of gentle, faith-based stories, using the familiar Riverdale characters to illustrate biblical parables. A curious and short-lived experiment, Archie's Parables stands as a distinctive footnote in the Archie universe, blending pop culture with religious education for a family audience.
