Yes. The Archie of old was quite enjoyable as a lad. Yet, the new and improved “Archie” features a gay Jughead or similar IIRC (one of them is GAY). :0)

Yeah, the new Archie attends a gay `wedding’ and is gunned down by a `homophobe’.

I recall MAD Magazine’s 1955 parody featuring Starchie and Bottleneck versus Wedgie van Smelt along with the girls Salonica and Biddy. The boys ran rival rackets selling school `passes’ to frightened freshmen.

But that parody didn’t hold a candle to the later Kurtzman/Elder sendup “Goodman Beaver”.
