Archie Comics has shared a preview with us of one of the new stories appearing in World of Archie Jumbo Comics Digest #134, which will arrives in stores Oct. 18.
In “The Gym-Daddy Mystery,” wannabe super-sleuth Penny Parker’s boxing instructor, Pug, finds himself on the wrong side of the law when his business partner mysteriously disappears. So Penny — along with Archie and Veronica — jumps to his defense and puts her detective skills to work. Bill Golliher, Bob Smith, Glenn Whitmore and Jack Morelli deliver the knockout punch on this one.
Take a look at the preview below, along with a “classic” story that involves Archie thinking he’s accidentally gained the ability to see the future.
WORLD OF ARCHIE JUMBO COMICS DIGEST #134
TWO BRAND NEW STORIES! Ginger Snapp visits Pop’s Chock’lit Shoppe on the eve of Halloween to help Betty and Veronica with costume ideas. As different Riverdale folks stop by, they remember a particular Halloween-related incident around Pop’s food item. Then, when Penny’s boxing instructor, Pug, is charged with a gym owner’s disappearance, she teams up with Veronica and Archie to prove him innocent. Will the three be victorious or wind up down for the count themselves?
