The Perilous Past

Story  on  Interior Page(s)
Credits
Colorist(s): ?
Subject Matter
Genres: science fiction, teen
Character(s): Veronica Lodge; Archie Andrews; Betty Cooper; Jughead Jones; unnamed man from Altera
Synopsis: Archie, Betty, and Veronica land on the planet Altera to find out who snatched Jughead while spacewalking. They notice that while Altera is more advanced technologically than Earth, all their decor is from the Victorian era. It turns out that one day a 1910 Saws and Rearbuck mail-order catalog fell from the sky (apparently from a time capsule launched from Earth), and Alterans treated it as sort of a bible. And because a picture of Mr. Rearbuck on the title page of the catalog looked similar to Jughead, Altera decided he was the "great spirit" Rearbuck, and treated him like royalty.

Reprint Notes:  
Miscellaneous
Pages: 6
Disclose Notes: "Saws and Rearbuck" is an obvious parody of Sears and Roebuck. An early 20th-century car on the planet looked remarkably similar to Archie's jalopy, but in green.

UFO Woe

Story  on  Interior Page(s)
Subject Matter
Genres: humorous, teen
Character(s): Archie Andrews; Jughead Jones; various un-named Riverdalians
Synopsis: As they're returning home after seeing a UFO movie, Archie and Jughead start discussing life in space, and keep mistaking various objects for UFOs - a pizza, a plate (thrown out the window by someone who's tired of a cat carrying on outside his window) and an iridescent frisbee. As they continue their walk home, a real UFO flies in front of them, but they refuse to believe that it is actually a UFO. Annoyed that the earthlings refuse to acknowledge them, the aliens contact their base and say they're heading to a different planet where residents are more hospitable.
