Re: Have you ever read an Archie comic before?
The digests were a regular part of summers during my youth. My favorites were the two superhero ones (featuring reprints of the 70's/80's Red Circle revival and Archie's Pureheart Powerful stories) and Little Archie. I'm still a huge Bob Bolling fan and wish they would put out more collections of his work.
Regular issues would turn up in those coverless, 3-for-1 plastic bags that I got most of my comics from.
I've recently read the first Married Life collection, love Afterlife, and will probably pick up the Predator series when it gets collected.

Bolling is best known for his Little Archies, but I'd like to point out that he did some Sabrinas, and they are outstanding. You can see a few of them at this link:

I read #1 of the new Archie from Waid and Staples. It was decent but nothing I'd pay more than a buck for.
That is it for me.

I would recommend you start with the Americana series, which has a "best of" book for each decade (and most decades now have two volumes). The 40's is different in tone (but still has good stories), and the 50's is where it starts to get more familiar, so check out those first two volumes.

I just started the Mark Waid run of the new Archie and I'm really liking it so far. I wish Fiona Staples could have done more than just 3 issues. I really like her artwork.

Last month's new Simpsons' episode had a quick Archie gag.

I foresee a publishing schedule worse than Afterlife with Archie.
