By Paul Castiglia and Fernando Ruiz. (Formerly Archie's Weird Mysteries.) It's a bold new direction for the mystery-loving teens! "Teen Scene Investigators": This issue introduces a brand new concept: Archie and his friends as forensic detectives! When arcade games start disappearing from a popular cinema chain, the top forensic investigators are put on the case ? as soon as they finish introducing forensics to Riverdale High's students on Career Day, that is! Enlisted to help, Archie and his friends soon realize they have forensic specialties of their own: given his exploits in the previous 24 issues, Archie takes the lead as chief crime scene investigator; Chuck uses his formidable talents as a forensic artist; Dilton applies his scientific aptitudes as the chemist; Betty is an all-in- one photo-analyst, linguist, and caster; Veronica sees dollar signs as the financial investigator; and Jughead takes a bite out of each investigation as the "foodologist" ? as long as he doesn't eat the evidence! Each thrilling story contains real forensic science to intrigue and enlighten, and a special crossword puzzle in each issue reinforces what's been learned. It's C.S.I. in high school, and a must for the millions fascinated by forensic fact and fiction alike! FC, 32pgs. Cover price $2.19.
