Alexandra was best girl
Josie and The Pussycats
Hudson Parker
Levi Hernandez
Pepper is my waifu
Juan Jackson
I don't get what is happening here.
Levi Johnson
She's wearing a bikini since they're at the lake, but Josie and Pepper think Melody is nude behind her large sketch pad.
Are you genuinely retarded?
Owen Russell
How do you get into Josie and the Pussycats? Were they just part of Archie or their own thing?
Brandon Sullivan
Their own thing that crosses over occasionally, like Sabrina.
I'm pretty sure they go to a different school as well.
Nathan Richardson
It depends on the comic.Sometimes Josie and the Pussycats go to the same school as Archie.
Sabrina's school is either in a nearby town or another part of Riverdale.
Jack Green
Yes, Alexandra IS best girl
Dude, you really want to go that route?
Noah Diaz
But think of all the pity sex.
The original book was basically it's own thing. They don't become Pussycats until issue 44 or so, but the early stuff is all classic Dan DeCarlo.
Evan Torres
>The original book was basically it's own thing
They started to cross over in #36 I guess, probably earlier
Jaxon Robinson
Pretty sure because they were planning the TV show, they started to add and remove characters
Bentley Sanders
Replay is mine and only mine
Jason Lewis
There's one more panel with Archie looking at Melody while Veronica drags him away. These are more cameo than crossover. I just flipped through a couple and from what I recall they didn't really continue the trend until maybe later in the series or in TV Laugh-Out.
Pepper was a weird situation. The writer made her a protester because that's what the kids were into. The publisher didn't like it and rather than just change her back they dropped her altogether. Clyde was a hippie, Alan M. was a folk singer that was just the usual Archie trend chasing.
Mason Sullivan
When did they drop Pepper?
Elijah Wilson
Is that Fred?
Ethan Garcia
Around #44
Adrian Fisher
Basically.

Alexander Bailey
is veronica the best waifu>
Tyler Bailey
No
Liam Jenkins
I feel bad for Hal.
Jack Johnson
Austin Scott
Why not?
Leo Stewart
>That issue has not been scanned
Hunter Thomas
is this show worth watching
Benjamin Edwards
Matthew Wright
I think I scanned it a while back but it's on my old dead computer.
It's your standard Scooby Doo ripoff except the bad guys are more like super villains than old man Jenkins.
Ethan Perry
I wish Archie would do a Josie or Sabrina omnibus, I'd like to read those early DeCarlo comics
Blake Thomas
Scooby-doo had supernatural villains too user
Matthew Jackson
Both have been done.
Michael Baker
Charles Johnson
Carson Diaz
Super, not supernatural. More like Bond villains.
Cameron Harris
They had those types of villains as well
Anthony Phillips
Childhood is thinking Betty or Veronica is the question. Adulthood is realizing Samantha Smythe is the answer.
Liam Campbell
Black and white doesn't count
Aiden Lewis
I would love a She's Josie collection in Black & White.
The only bad thing is that the first 44 issues are around 1350 pages, including the stories from the PEP and Laugh from that period of time, so they will probably have to make 3 volumes.
I made 2 TPBs with the scans one with the first 16 issues + PEP + Laugh (630 pages) and other with 17-44 (720 pages) I could probably make the same with the Pussycats issues once they scan all them
Ryan Martin
Best girl.
Jace Campbell
It pisses me off that Mok bailed on the last issue to do the Archie book.
Ryan Roberts
Joshua Rivera
Are they still cute in black and white?
Adam Ramirez
I see you are a man of culture as well.
Sebastian Mitchell
Yes
The TPBs I made are just the scans in separate folders and not in black & White
Noah Jackson
best is always Melody
Nathaniel Bell
How do I into archie comics? I like betty and veronica
Mason Cook
He's gunna bang her up against the wall, isn't he?
Aiden Brooks
James Smith
Didn't the editor think Pepper was a Lesbian?
No idea why they'd think that!
Robert Gray
Literally who?
Jackson Adams
Blonde Super Strong tomboy who dated That Wilkins Boy.
That Wilkins Boy is a bunch of fun but since it never got a cartoon it's been relegated to the dustbins of history :-( Has any of the Wilkins characters appeared on Riverdale? Bingo and Jughead are cousins.
Carter Martin
is that a skunk on her head
Julian Roberts
She's just happy to see you! :-)
Ian Wood
Is pep 61 the only That Wilkin Boy comic that's scanned? I could have sworn I read a bunch of Wilkin Boy comics here a while ago but can't find anything online right now.
Joshua Cruz
The 52 issues are scanned, I've never read them tho
libgen.io
Mason Cook
DAT ASS
Hunter Campbell
Sweet, I haven't read That Wilkin Boy in forever.
Eli Rodriguez
DAT DRESS
Robert Fisher
I'm unironically all for this.
I wouldn't mind if they decided to make Melody a lesbian, it would add a fun spin to things.
Every guy in three towns that doesn't have a wedding ring will drop everything they're doing to watch her walk by, but she doesn't notice because she's she's too focused on trying to get Alex to stop being such a bitch to her best friend and go see a movie with her. Besides being an airhead.
Henry Rogers
Try the Archie horror line for something more modern. Afterlife with Archie, Chilling Tales of Sabrina, and Blossoms 666 are all great, even if Afterlife is on forever hiatus.
I also see there's Vampire Veronica, and Werewolf Jughead, haven't read those.
For something more grounded, Life With Archie/The Married Life is one of their books with a continuous story.
You especially will be interested in Betty & Veronica by Adam Hughes. Great story, lots of sexual tension.
And while you're waiting on any of those, you can always pick up a Digest next time you're at the grocery store.
Joseph Nguyen
these were weird
James Hughes
Owen Murphy
this looks interesting.
but i dont like the short form joke format, thats why i cant get into archie.
mm. yeah i think ill leave it.
Blake Green
your loss
Hunter Hill
I don't mind B&W. All the better to appreciate deCarlo's art.
Xavier Stewart
Don't know if this is a different collection or just a different cover.
Jaxson Scott
Archie vs Punisher
Archie vs Predator
Tyler Anderson
Alexandra has black hair with a white lightning-bolt shaped stripe running through the middle of it, giving her ponytail a slight impression of a skunk's tail. In contrast to the good-natured girls in the Pussycats, Alexandra is cynical, hateful, mean, offensive, rude, envious, scheming and self-centered. She is insanely jealous of the Pussycats, especially Josie, about whom she never has a kind word. Despite having no vocal or musical talent at all, Alexandra desperately wants to be a star; her conditions for joining the Pussycats were that she be made the lead and that the band be renamed Alexandra's Cool Time Cats. Her absence of musical talent is on display at the end of the episode "Swap Plot Flop", when she gets the chance to front her own act; Alexander is particularly distressed by the performance.
Sebastian is a tuxedo cat, and Alexandra's sidekick. In the comics, Sebastian is the reincarnation of Sebastian Cabot, a witchcraft-practicing ancestor of the Cabot family. Alexandra finds that, by holding Sebastian in her arms, she can cast powerful magic spells (Alexandra and Sebastian's bond is represented in that they both have a matching white stripe in their middle of their hair/fur). However, this plot device was seldom used and was eventually dropped. Alexandra was later shown to be able to cast spells on her own. In the cartoon, Alexandra and Sebastian do not have magic powers but they still have their white stripes.
Aiden Morales
Was there any crossover between these and the DeCarlo-style Millie the Model comics?
Kevin Walker
Andrew Cox
what is this from
Justin Torres
Is this for real?
Dylan Hernandez
How can a dress be so conservative and so slutty at the same time?
Landon Murphy
That's from the animated series, episode "Melody Memory Mix-Up", the same one that gave us this gem.
Camden Edwards
I need to check, but as far as I know, those are pretty different, this is only 100 pages and this includes Bennet's #1 and one Riverdale issue in a 400 pages book
Isaiah Long
boob window
Jose Moore
>That time you realize Brando's Dr. Moreau was Dr. Greenthumb
Landon Baker
I'm not the only who doesn't like Jose and the Pussycats, am I? She's Josie was better in almost every way. Pepper is an actual character while Valerie is... Black. That's her entire personality, bland black girl. They also turned it into a Scooby Doo rip-off.
I'll take Femi-nazi Pepper over minority-hiring Val any day!
Levi Phillips
LEWD
Ryder Moore
Why did this shit get a live action movie?
Matthew Ramirez
The Josie and the Pussycats was actually one of the FEW Josie and the Pussycats thing that was cool. As a parody of MTV it's great! IMO, if it had come out 1 or 2 years later it would have been a hit!
Michael Allen
Is it even possible to be as based as Jughead
Nicholas Young
One can aspire.
Nicholas Peterson
I remember Val being just the dickish side of Pepper without any likable trait or good story in the original run
Austin Ortiz
It was based on the cartoon and not in the comics
Julian Howard
Landon Bailey
Great!
Jack Lopez
From 57-68 they included a supernatural/horror type story that was usually featured on the cover.
Andrew Stewart
I always thought of Valerie as black Pepper.
>but i dont like the short form joke format
There are exceptions but the old core Archie titles tend to be 5 or 6 page stories with gag pages or pin-ups here and there. In Josie a bunch of the early books are full length stories split into chapters.
Josiah Gonzalez
To be fair, Bikini's were gaining popularity in the 60's and 70's, and werent extremely common when this comic came out
