Little Archie Comics Digest Magazine #22
In "One of the Best," Little Archie faces a playful dilemma when Ronnie asks him to the masquerade dance—only he'd rather spend time with the pigeon he’s recently caught. Mary, eager to see Little Archie branch out, nudges Ronnie to meet him on his own terms, leading to an unexpected twist when Ronnie’s father surprises her with a costly pigeon of her own. Written and illustrated by Bob Bolling, this charming 1986 installment captures the everyday antics of Riverdale’s youngest residents, with Dexter Taylor’s cover adding a festive flair to the mix.
