Duh, stay outta Riverdale

Since all comics bloggers are required by law to have at least one Archie post per calendar year, here's the cover to Archie and Friends #137:

Hey, who's that over Archie's right shoulder?


That's not a bad Dewey (Louie? Who can tell?)- recognizable, but changed just enough to avoid a lawsuit. That off-brand Donald though, woof. Looks like the crappy new Howard the Duck got lost on his way to Oktoberfest.
Anyway, it looks like a fun issue, and I look forward to skimming through it on the checkout line at the Stop and Shop.

From Archie and Friends #137, by Fernando Ruiz, available at finer comic shops.


EDIT: Timo Ronkainen informs me that the ducks are actually Super Duck and his nephew. I'd never heard of Super Duck before...you learn something new every day!

  1. That's not any of Don's nephews and that bigger duck isn't Donald. They are Super Duck (the cockeyed wonder) and his nephew Faunt by Al Fagaly. Published by Archie comics 1943-60. http://www.toonopedia.com/suprduck.htm
