ARCHIE COMICS FOR JULY

ARCHIE #577

Written by Craig Boldman, Kathleen Webb and Mike Pellowski, art by Stan Goldberg.

"Friendly Fire": Tired of the girls fighting over him, Archie decides giving up both Betty and Veronica will save their relationship.... but can it save Archie from the girls' wrath? "Canoe Help Us?": Archie takes Veronica for a one-way canoe ride... unintentionally one-way, of course!

ARCHIE & FRIENDS #111

Written by George Gladir, art by Stan Goldberg.

"Making it Big": It's a sad song and a happy song for Riverdale's favorite garage band: sad when The Archies blow an audition to appear on national TV, and big time when they end up on TV anyway... courtesy of an unexpected voice from the past!

ARCHIE DIGEST #236

Written by Fernando Ruiz and various, art by Rex Lindsey and various.

For 65 years Archie and his friends from Riverdale High have been delighting audiences of all ages. Now, in tribute to Archie's longevity, this special issue of Archie Digest pays tribute to Archie's illustrious past by reprinting Archie's very first adventures from Pep Comics #22 and Archie Comics #1! From Archie being a hapless showoff when Betty moves into town, to Archie being a tongue-tied, discombobulated wreck when Veronica moves into town, these early stories written by Vic Bloom and others reflect the free-wheeling fun of the popular screwball comedy movies of the day. Not to mention the charmingly exaggerated cartooning styles of Bob Montana and others so popular in the 1940s. As if that weren't enough, the original "funny animal" supporting features like Squoimy the Woim, Cubby the Bear and Bumbie the Bee-tective, from the legendary Joe Edwards are also included! If you've never seen Archie and his friends as they originally appeared, you're in for a treat with these milestone tales... as well as a brand new story created in homage to the gang -- " When Archie Meets Archie": On the eve of his 65th anniversary, Archie Andrews meets... himself! At least, the version of himself that appeared in Archie's first story! After Archie gets used to calling his other self "Chic," he ends up meeting the vintage Jughead and Betty, too -- also drawn 1940s style! The space-time continuum has never seen anything like this! Bonus: Puzzles, games and your chance to "Find Your Name in Print!"

Digest format, $2.49, in stores on July 11.
