Start brewing that hot cocoa now!
December means more of the Official Comic Book of Christmas! Yep, the most wonderful time of the year is also the most wonderful time for Archie Comics, and we’ve got your EXCLUSIVE FIRST LOOK at the publisher’s December line-up of classic-style, all ages titles.
Quick note: There’s no Facsimile Edition in December and October’s Archie’s Pal Jughead #78 Facsimile Edition has been postponed. But worry not! More are expected in the new year (and we still have two more to come in 2024).
Anyway, dig this December shopping list (featuring a new Tom DeFalco That Wilkin Boy story) which is always good for stocking stuffers! The issues include, as usual, new fare and vintage tales by the likes of Dan DeCarlo, Harry Lucey, Samm Schwartz and other Archie greats:
