Archie (Jumbo Comics) Double Digest #264
In "Holiday Light!", Archie takes a bold (and hilariously awkward) turn trying to impress a new girl named Tina by embracing the punk look—complete with a mohawk wig. When Tina drops the bomb that she’ll only date someone with a real mohawk, Reggie steps in with a daring cut, only to be left heartbroken when Tina unexpectedly moves away before she can see it. Written by Nate Butler and brought to life with Dan DeCarlo Jr.’s signature style, Jim DeCarlo’s inks, Barry Grossman’s colors, and Bill Yoshida’s lettering, this lighthearted, high-school romp is a classic slice of Archie charm. The cover, by Dan Parent and Rich Koslowski, captures the moment with playful flair.
