Yoe’s affection for Archie is evident in this historical tome full of rare art and photos, but condensing the text would’ve allowed for deeper excavation. Collectibles and adaptations get short shrifted along with the breadth of titles (the semi-serious ARCHIE AT RIVERDALE HIGH isn’t even mentioned), leaving me wanting more.

I realize that this is just one of Yoe's ARCHIE collections, but I expected more depth (the dissolution of Dan DeCarlo's relationship isn't even mentioned) and thought some of the full stories reprinted were a waste of space. A few pages would've sufficed for the unpublished "Andy Andrews" story and why that Dan Parent tattoo tale was given twelve pages is a mystery.
