You have gone to that big hamburger stand in the sky.
The creator of the Archie comics has died.

2. I grew up with Archie Comics and I never once got them. |

Superman, Batman, SpiderMan - the barber shop was my comic book heaven, but if all that was left was an Archie I'd be bummed out.

I've been reading all my old Archie digests from when I was a kid in the 80s just before going to bed. I've read them a hundred times of course, but I still get a chuckle out of them.
