And the last of our correct uniques is this one, from Tracer Bullet.

OK, I misunderstood what you had in mind. But seriously -- French comics!? Do those even count!?

Vaillant is deemed a correct answer. Well played, Mr. The Bus.

The Amazing Spider-Man is a correct answer. It is also popular. 6 points each for:
orangecrush
hitman tommy
davidh777

If I'm going to use a Google penalty, I will go so fucking obscure no one will match me.

Unfortunately, Condorito has yet to reach 400 issues, eventhough it's been published since 1955.

The Mighty Thor was equally as popular as Spider-Man, and is also worth 6 points:
Lokimok
Mboyd
fujishig

Did you try to go old-school in the hopes that nobody else would remember this comic:

Bad move. The following people get 8 points each:

JasonF
brianluvdvd
foggy
Rockmjd23

Really? Holy shit!

A better move would have been to take a cue from the next question and go with:

The people who did that got 4 points each:
dadaluholla
CaptainMarvel

There was one more unique, but it was, unfortunately, wrong:

12 points for brainee, since Cerebus only ran for 300 issues. Unless, of course, someone can show me a French communist comic called Cerebus that ran for 400 or more issues.

Which means that our most popular answer was worth 10 points for the following people:
RKillgore
Nogura
reverie
ivelostr2
fumanstan

And we have a single person in first place for the first time this round.

Hats off to our current front-runner. How long will it last?

4. S: Besides Archie Andrews, name one of the kids from Riverdale

Look at all those friends Archie has. Which one did you pick?

Well, let's get the hard stuff out of the way. If you picked someone besides Jughead, Reggie, Betty, or Veronica, then I didn't get your answers. But how were things divided amongst those four? Relatively evenly? Concentrated with one or two of the gang? Only I know for sure!

I'm surprised no one mentioned Superman or Batman for more than 400 issues.

Who would you do:


In true Archie fashion, they were equally popular as each other.

Who the fuck is Reggie?

Unfortunately, neither was particularly popular. Our contestants took "Bros before Hos" to heart. -2 points each for our 2 Betty partisans and our 2 Veronica fans. For the record, RKillgore and Tracer Bullet prefered Betty Cooper, while hitman tommy and Nick Danger opted for Veronica Lodge.

I could have used those bonus points

Reggie Mantle is Archie's nemesis, the Newman to his Jerry.


Jughead Jones is Archie's best friend, the George to his Jerry.

We already know who The Bus picked. Who did everyone else pick?

Reggie

Jughead
