I was at my grandfather's house last weekend. He has a whole box full of old Archie comics. I came across an extremely racist one.
I'm guessing that this is supposed to be what the Archie characters might look and act like if the comic was set in Japan. It's full of fake Engrish and people with slanted eyes and buck teeth. Very offensive.
This comic is from Archie Comics Digest no. 24, June 1977.
Please note that I'm not racist myself. I have nothing against Japanese people, and I don't mean to offend anyone with this post. I realize that in light of recent events in Japan, this post may appear insensitive. My purpose in posting these scans is just to say, "Hey, look at this really bad comic from 1977. They'd never allow something like that today."
