Exclusive Preview: Archie 75th Anniversary Digest #3
Archie Comics is celebrating its 75th birthday this year, and they are going through the vaults to bring out all sorts of interesting old comics. This preview of Archie 75th Anniversary Digest #3, due out in comic shops next week, includes a look at Archie’s debut—and Betty’s as well. These early characters look very different from the versions we see now, and there are installments from two later comics so you can compare and contrast. Enjoy!
