ARCHIE DIGEST #257
"The Archies in London": This song-ful sequel to last issue's "The Archies in New York" finds Riverdale's famous rock band on a jaunt across the pond to follow in the footsteps of their idols, The BeatBoys! Along the way, they encounter all the sites befitting rock royalty, including Abbey Road Studios, Carnaby Street, the Dorchester Hotel and more. They also partake in British pop culture, including riding on a double-decker bus, visiting a vintage UK fashion boutique, and dancing away at an authentic '60s discotheque! Betty and Veronica even become chic fashion models and the group gets to perform live on the BBC! It's a "Hard Déjà vu's Night" for bubblegum's premiere popsters! It's all brought to you by no less a pop music authority than Hal Lifson, author of the swingin' sixties coffee table tome, "Hal Lifson's 1966!"
