Archie Andrews is an only child, who resides in the town of Riverdale where he attends Riverdale High. He has two girlfriends, Betty Cooper and Veronica Lodge who both compete for his attention.
The U.S. Postal Service unveiled the 2010 Archie postage stamp. As part of their "Sunday Funnies" line coming in July, Archie is joined by Veronica and Betty. Archie existed in only comic book form and didn't debut in newspapers until 1946. Now the comic is being honored among others.
It's not often I buy stamps to collect, but these are screaming to be collected. It is an interesting group. I wonder how it was narrowed down to these five different comics. I have to admit that when I think about Archie comics, I don't think of them as being in the Sunday Funnies. I wonder if there was a voting process.
What do you think of this selection? What "Sunday Funnies" comics would you have wanted to see?
I don't know if it's just my mind, but that Archie one looks like something is going on. Something I'd rather not go into detail about since minors could be reading this.
While I'm not disappointed Archie is in the line-up, I agree, he's more of an actual comic book property instead of a Sunday Funnies newspaper. Its all good though.
I'm just waiting for the day the Post Office will release a Flaming Carrot postage stamp. UT!!
