Everything should be fixed now. I forgot to give the appropriate permissions to the groups above "newbie".

He didn't show up very often. I think he's one of the characters that Bob Bolling came up with.

We could probably start a whole topic about obscure Riverdale High faculty members. There have been dozens of random ones over the years - some who only appear for one story and others who appear whenever they're needed (such as guidance counselor Mr. Meeks).

They're bringing in a new artist, at least temporarily, for Jughead. I still wish they'd just use Dan or Fernando instead. Both have proven they can draw the "new" style just as well as the classic style.

How about Ophelia Glutenschnable, who was basically a predecessor to Big Ethel?

She has to show up at some point. It'll be fun to see what they do with her.

Welcome!

I still need to catch up on Jughead. I haven't read the last three issues yet.

I prefer classic Archie as well and miss the classic-style "floppies". If they wanted to introduce a reboot, they could easily do that without getting rid of long-time artists or all but eliminating new classic stories.

Permissions on the shoutbox have been fixed. In the future please send me a PM about issues like this instead of starting topics. I'll see it faster.

On that note, please stop with the arguments. It's getting old real fast.

Sure thing, chief.  Hope you're doing backups more than once a decade now so the site doesn't disappear again.

Backups are done nightly now. Knock it off with the nastiness.

A few weeks ago I picked up around 100 or so various Archie comics for $35 through estate sale auction site ebth.com (based locally but they recently expanded nationally). They're not in the best of shape (some water damage, writing on the cover, torn covers in some cases, etc.), but they're still readable. Here's a complete list of what I got. I don't know how many are duplicates of ones I already have, but will go through the list and compare it to what I already have in a little while.

But please no Caitlyn Jenner presence on Riverdale. Her bravery is a sickening mix of publicity-seeking and privilege. IMHO, as always...

Watch out, Caitlyn Jenner, JonInIowaCity is telling you to check your privilege!  Did she break the SJW brain trust by supporting Trump or something?      It's not like I'm a huge fan, but it's good she came out, maybe people like gay men will stop treating transwomen like garbage like they have gotten away with for decades on end if there is an actual trans celebrity?  Oh I'm sorry, is being an Olympian to low of a bar for personal achievement for successful trans people? I guess you must be in the Olympics and then be poor for the rest of your life to make the bar for acceptable LGBT celeb status, or does that only apply to transfolk?  Was Doogie Howser MD in the Olympics?  Is that why he's allowed to be lavished with attention by the media?

Please be courteous and respect everyone else's opinions even if you don't agree with them...

I was watching it that night and was glad to see it, though I still don't buy their answer for what town Riverdale was based on.

Rik Offenberger

I sure wish Rik would come back.

I'm friends with him on Facebook. I'll send him a message letting him know about this topic. Not surprised at all that he's involved with this book.
