Originally running from 1940 all the way into the '80s, PEP was the platform for Archie's first appearance in 1941, and introduced many of the Riverdale citizens that the world still follows over 80 years later.
Pep Comic Issue 370 features the story Archie in Tech Me Tonight. Archie’s grades in French are so low that he gets grounded. With some help from Betty and Veronica can he get better grades? Other stories in this issue include Archie and the Gang in Weather or Not, “Li'l Jinx in What Do You Get Someone that has Everything?”, “That Wilkin Boy in Dig that Snow”, and more.
