Andy Andrews was a big deal back in the 1950s – if he would have ever seen print. Now Archie Comics is bringing the unpublished comic “Iron Curtain Caper” to the world at ArchieComics.com.
Archie Comics alum and writer Tom DeFalco and Editor-in-Chief Victor Gorelick knew of the unpublished Golden Age, Pre-1957 Archie pages featuring a character named Andy Andrews, and in a discussion about him Tom became so inspired that he spent all night creating a new story about Andy! The next day, Tom passionately pitched the concept to Gorelick, who immediately approved the story. It is a tale of bravery, mystery, excitement, laughter and spies. It is the adventure of “The Man from R.I.V.E.R.D.A.L.E.”!
“Bringing back ‘The Man from R.I.V.E.R.D.A.L.E.’ is a great vehicle for introducing Andy Andrews into the world of Archie,” said Archie Comics Editor-in-Chief, Victor Gorelick. “It fits the action/adventure theme of Andy’s unpublished comic right into Archie and the gang’s antics!”
You can read the comic for free at the ArchieComics.com website.

For somer eason, the art on Andy reminds me of Terry from “Terry and the Pirates”.
Duh – that should be “some reason”. My space bar hates me.
