Riverdale Revisions

No more yellow sky, and what is this sleeve?

"Crippled" out. And watch Archie learn a valuable lesson.

Weird alteration in the woman passing -- eye moves from glancing at Archie and Jeff, new eyeglasses, new hair style.

Everyone laughs at Jughead's beachwear. Jughead can't win -- when he has regular swimwear, everyone wants him to cover up.

An obscure recurring character, but a rather contrived and manufactured one. The third one is modelled after the second one, which makes for a bizarre bring back of a one-time character, a walk through in a single comic strip, but is enough of a type that his general likeness has been seen before -- if we ret-con it as the same character it is at least an assurance here that he has more than one shirt (or multiple same shirts with sleeves cut off in different patterns). It remains a mystery how writer Cris Cummins would fill out his back story and the question of if he has him settling on this one shirt as trademark, and from where his love of pink pants comes.

He does have a connection with an existing peripheral Archie character, which I hope to explore in future stories.

Conscious decision consciously made and executed -- the additional drawing of a butt crack for Veronica.

Note some inconsistencies. What is the size of Betty's fur bikini top? Maybe it folded under and she wrapped it back off panel, only to fall again before the next panel appearance.

Subliminal Fruit of the Loom unpaid ad. And make a note on where the light gleams or refracts or -- pear is better in the first version, grapes in the second.

For what it’s worth, moving into the (one page gag) narrative –
