Disclose Notes: This issue would introduce a standard introduction page that would be used for the next few years. Archie holds up the sign saying "Archie Proudly Presents" while Betty and Veronica hold up the box with the story titles. The only difference between this issue and later issues is that Jughead appears at the bottom of the page.
