Summary

Yes, it's another great entry in the Archie Classics reprint series, focusing on some of the greatest Little Archie adventures ever written and drawn by the Archie Comic's equivalent of Carl "the Duck Man" Barks, Bob Bolling! Here's another heaping helping of thrilling tales from the mind of Bolling, along with hysterical slapstick tales by Dexter Taylor! Included is a brand-new tale from Bob Bolling called "Dragon of Doom" - Mad Doctor Doom and Chester are back to their bad 'ol tricks, this time using a giant dragon fly to steal armored cars! It's up to Little Archie, Chic, and Kimberly to stop the dastardly duo in this 22-page epic! Plus other classic tales of Little Archie!

Author Biography

Bob Bolling is an American comic artist and writer best known for his work in Archie Comics. Bolling did several Little Archie spinoffs, including Little Archie in Animal Land, a four-issue series that mixed humor with educational stories about animals and the natural world, a one-shot comic starring Ambrose, and two issues of Little Archie Mystery Comics. Bolling's Little Archie stories were usually longer than the typical Archie story, and incorporated a much wider range of material and approaches, ranging from light comedy to adventure to science fiction to tearjerking sentimentality. He would also change the designs of the characters depending on the nature of the story: in his adventure stories, the adults are usually drawn in a realistic style to contrast with the cartoony style of Little Archie and his friends. His stories are also notable for their lush backgrounds and specific references to the geography of Riverdale. His own favorite story is "The Long Walk" where Betty's attempt to walk home with Little Archie is told with a mix of comedy and sentiment; one entire page is devoted to a giant map charting everything that happens on their walk home, and the story uses a fantasy framing device where Betty's toys come to life and discuss her situation.
