Archie #354
In "Out of the Ordinary," Archie takes a bold (and wildly uncharacteristic) turn trying to impress a new girl named Tina by embracing the punk look—complete with a mohawk wig. When Tina drops the surprising condition that she’ll only date someone with a mohawk, Reggie steps in with a real one, only to learn she’s already moved away. Written by Nate Butler and illustrated by Dan DeCarlo Jr., with inks by Jim DeCarlo, colors by Barry Grossman, and letters by Bill Yoshida, this 1988 issue captures the classic charm of Riverdale’s teenage antics, all under a cover by Dan DeCarlo.
