PEP

Pep Comic Issue 382 features the story "Betty and Veronica in The Knit Pickers". Betty and Veronica are shopping for Christmas gifts for Archie. They decide it is a good idea to ask Jughead for suggestions. Probably not the right move, but this story goes sideways for a totally different reason. Other stories in this issue include "Archie in Charm Chatter", "Charley and Li'l Jinx in Santa Is on His Way", "Sabrina in Color Coded", and more. Originally running from 1940 all the way into the '80s, PEP was the platform for Archie's first appearance in 1941 and introduced many of the Riverdale citizens that the world still follows over 80 years later.
