“Rhythm and Blues”

In "Rhythm and Blues," Reggie’s attempt to steal Archie’s spotlight by stepping in as judge for a local beauty contest backfires in ways he didn’t expect. Written by Rich Margopoulos and brought to life with energetic art by Sal Amendola, inks by Jon D'Agostino, and vibrant colors by Barry Grossman, this 1976 classic captures the charm and chaos of small-town rivalry. The cover by Stan Goldberg and Rudy Lapick perfectly captures the lighthearted tension of the moment.
