The Archies "Greatest Hits"

The Archies have transcended all boundaries in their fifty-plus years of music-making, and today, Archie Comics pay tribute to this super-band of immortal teens by compiling their best and most famous appearances in this brand-new, full-color graphic novel! The Archies' Greatest Hits brings back the band's most memorable moments, from catastrophe to triumph! With Archie on lead guitar, Reggie on bass, Jughead on drums, Veronica on keyboard, and Betty on the tambourine, this pop group phenomenon has made history by being one of the few comic book bands to jump out of the pages of the book and record actual songs, like the Top Ten 1960's hit, "Sugar Sugar"!

Frank Doyle (November 17, 1917 - April 3, 1996) was the head writer for Archie Comics for over thirty years. He wrote over 10,000 stories featuring the Archie characters. Artist Dan DeCarlo referred to Doyle as "the best". In 1951 he joined Archie Comics as a writer. Doyle wrot the majority of stories for such important Archie titles as "Archie" and "Betty and Veronica" and also began writing many of the stories for adventure-themed titles. According to DeCarlo, Doyle did "all the writing" for the early issues of She's Josie. Doyle wrote the first issue of the Archie title "That Wilkin Boy" and wrote the debut stories for several Archie supporting characters, including the first appearance of Cheryl Blossom.
