Archie (Jumbo Comics) Double Digest #236
In "Cold Comfort," Archie and Veronica share a quiet moment on the couch just as the lights go out—thanks to Fred’s overdue electric bill—leaving the house in darkness and tension in the air. Written by Frank Doyle and illustrated by Chic Stone, with inks by Rudy Lapick and colors by Barry Grossman, this 2013 Double Digest tale captures a rare, intimate moment in Riverdale’s usual chaos. The cover, by Dan DeCarlo and Alison Flood, perfectly frames the scene’s quiet drama.
