Riverdale 90210

Has anyone seen the latest Archie comic books on the newsstand? It's an atrocity! Is nothing sacred?

So they're going from cartoon style drawing to a modified graphic novel style... It's probably a marketing decision. To me the big thing is those digests cost $3.50 --do tweens have that kind of dough for a quick read?

My Walt Disney's Comics & Stories and Uncle Scrooge comics only cost a dime when I was growing up, PLUS I learned to read from them...

Donald and the boys were always passing little buildings with "CAFE" on their signs. I think I was almost an adult before I realized that was a two syllable word. And "GEE" which the nephews were always saying, I pronouced with a hard G. I thought it was a duck sound!! I'm a little more savvy now (I hope). -Rick
