Preview: ‘World of Archie Jumbo Comics Digest’ #79
Summer vacation is around the corner, so it’s time for some warm-weather hijinks with the Riverdale gang. What’s this?
Archie is thrilled to be starting his summer vacation—too bad he failed biology and has to be tutored by Miss Grundy! Archie soon realizes Ms. Grundy is a lot more fun outside of school… but will he still learn?
Sounds like a plot from Riverdale, but this is World of Archie Jumbo Comics Digest #79, so it’s probably a much tamer story than it sounds. Probably. You can check it out when the comic goes on sale on Wednesday. Enjoy!
