Like anybody would care in the least. 40 years ago I remember the only place I ever saw Archie comics was in the waiting room at the dentist office. As a comic-craving pre-teen waiting for the annual cleaning, I couldn’t stand Archie, preferring to fill that dread-filled half-hour reading Grit or Modern Maturity instead.

I never understood the appeal of ‘Archie’ comics. Who the heck are these guys who are picking up some book about teenagers over some awesome superhero sci-fi mystic barbarian comic? That’s like deciding to watch the jewelry shopping network instead of the ball game or something. I mean come on, are there guys out there who claim Archie is their favourite? Or is it for girls or something?

you sound like your channeling my old boss and mentor, M. Stanton Evans, who said, “When I go to the dentist office and they’re playing Steeley Dan, I concentrate on the pain in my mouth to block out the music.”
