The first story 'Signer's Trouble' is believed to be Ray Gill's byline in an Archie story.
In it, Veronica's 'Uncle Bumble' (1st appearance in Archie #29) or 'Mr. Bumble' as he's listed at GCD, returns to give Archie another target for his special brand of misadventure.

Bill Vigoda forever has a place in my Archie memory, if for nothing else but these six panels....

We wouldn't see it all that much in Archie Comics, but here Novick uses Woggon's 'Katy Keene' gimmick to get girl fans involved in submitting outfits for the characters.

It's probably been awhile since anyone referred to Betty and Veronica as 'Dumb Dames' in the pages of an Archie Comic....
