About the author

Archie Comics is an American comic book publisher headquartered in the Village of Mamaroneck, Town of Mamaroneck, New York, known for its many series featuring the fictional teenagers Archie Andrews, Betty Cooper, Veronica Lodge, Reggie Mantle and Jughead Jones. The characters were created by publisher/editor John L. Goldwater, written by Vic Bloom and drawn by Bob Montana. They were based in part on people met by Goldwater "in the Midwest" during his travels throughout the United States while looking for jobs and places to stay.

Archie's first appearance in Pep Comics #22 on December 22, 1941, was drawn by Montana and written by Vic Bloom. With the creation of Archie, publisher Goldwater hoped to appeal to fans of the Andy Hardy movies starring Mickey Rooney. Archie Comics is also the title of the company's longest-running publication, the first issue appearing with a cover date of Winter 1942. Starting with issue #114, the title was shortened to simply Archie.

Reviews

[Michael Finocchiaro · Rating 4 out of 5]

I know that after a while, the stories all are about the same: Archie unable to choose between Betty and Ronnie, Jughead busy eating and joking around, Moose getting jealous of Reggie and beating him up, but the authors do such a great job of adding various twists and turns to the stories that they are still a joy to read. I read them to my kid and they gave us hours of pleasure.

I like reading Archie’s when I want something light before bed

Some classic comics included in this anthology! Even some from the 40s, which are really neat! But they're kind of sexist and I can't stand how Archie always picked that bitch Veronica over Betty! Plus all the sentences ended with exclamation points! It got a little annoying after awhile!

solid mix of stories old and new!
