Archie... Archie Andrews, Where Are You? Comics Digest Magazine #20
In "Nostalgia Gets Ya!", Archie and the gang are whisked into "Nostalgia Land," a whimsical time-travel twist where they experience life as teens at the turn of the century. Written and drawn by Al Hartley, with inks by Jon D'Agostino, colors by Barry Grossman, and letters by Bill Yoshida, the story explores what modern teens might learn from the past—without ever revealing how they return. The cover by Dan DeCarlo captures the playful retro spirit of the tale, a 95-cent comic from 1981 that blends humor and heart.

The nostalgia craze of the early '70s transports Archie and the gang back in time to "Nostalgia Land," where they live out the lives of typical teenagers at the turn of the century. They discover that people back then had stronger moral values and kept the air and water cleaner, and conclude that the people of the modern world can find the same kind of spirit if they "look up."
