In response to Archie's question, the answer is probably "Yes". |
It's been almost a year since I
posted some of my Archie comics to one of my favorite Tumblrs,
Archie Out of Context. However, I didn't want to place all my eggs in one basket too soon, and was curious to see if others might've chosen entries I would've found myself. Of the numerous panels since then, there was
only one which I
ALMOST submitted, but didn't. And I'm glad, since their choice was better than mine.

Three guesses what they're going to use him for, and the first two don't count. |
Lately, their output has crawled to a trickle, and it's been over a month since their last contribution. I figured either interest has dwindled or their well's run dry, and I might as well take the opportunity to pick up the slack to their impressive collection with several panels I didn't include the first time around.

Go ahead, encourage her. |

You knew what you were getting yourself into. Don't blame yourself. |
|
If THAT'S what he considers torture, I shudder to think of what he considers
a gift to his friends. Obviously the boy's priorities are sadly misplaced. |
|
If you have to ask the question, you better prepare yourself for the answer. |
|
They could be talking about anything here. ANYTHING. |
|
Input your own "stiff pole" and "weird oils" joke here. |
|
Sometimes its amazing what's allowed in a typical Archie comic. |
|
Remember kids, always disinfect your hands
when borrowing stuff from a world-renowned playboy. |
But it's not all double-entendre dirty jokes here. One of the greatest guilty pleasures in these OOC panels is finding
relationships other than the usual love triangle between the obvious parties of Archie / Betty / Veronica (
and preferred slash pairings of the latter), that were
never even considered in the first place.
|
Yes, that is Reggie standing up for Ethel, and he's fully aware of it. |
Lest you think this is unusual for the world's biggest narcissist acting in defense of the town's ugliest girl, there were instances where Ethel dated Archie, such as in Issue #8 of
Riverdale High and the infamous
Al Hartley Christian comic. More relevant links about Ethel can be found
here.
|
No, Archie, don't go there! Stick with the Harem girls! |
|
Obviously, she's struck dumb by her rival's looks and grace. |
|
It's the look of realization on her face that really sells it. |
