I guess they must have figured -- it worked for Disney Babies and Baby Looney Tunes, so why not?
But I totally agree -- of all the many creatively bankrupt concepts ACP has ever generated, Archie Babies has to rank as the absolute worst (and this from a company that brought out comics based on Koosh-Kins...) Yes, I am done with
Archie and Me Comics Digest.The Archie-centric digest titles (as opposed to B&V) have really reached a nadir lately. They have they dropped any variety or reprints of interesting or little-seen series, apart from the drivel mentioned above. I guess they must really be desperate, since they've re-instituted the free digital comic giveaways after two years, with no fanfare whatsoever. These are apparently now under the title
Archie's Funhouse Dollar Digest.

Now, here I could go for the free stuff. Is the free digital on their site?

Thank you, DR! Free is free! :2funny:
Now that I think about it, I wonder if the digital-only Archie's Funhouse Dollar Digest #35 continued its numbering sequence from the now-defunct Archie's Funhouse Double Digest print version, which ended its run with #28 in September 2017.
Even though as a FREE COMIC, the 35-page digital issue (5 pages of which are advertising) is given a new logo (and no number on the cover), in the print ad from Archie's Jumbo Comics Digest #285, it's pictured as Archie's Funhouse Dollar Digest #35, with the same cover artwork. In order to be up to at least issue #35 (presuming for the moment that it did indeed continue its numbering from the print Archie's Funhouse digest), that would mean it would need to be published digitally on at least a biweekly basis -- easy enough to do, compared to the printed digests, which are comprised of many more pages. Have they been charging $1 for these since last September or October? Anyone know?
All the stories in this free digital issue were ones with which I was very familiar, and I had read them all previously fairly recently.
