*Archie: The Archie super-hero line commenced in the 1960s as the ‘Archie Adventure Series’ before changing its branding later in the decade to the ‘Mighty Comics Group’ in a shameless rip-off following the success of Marvel. Mighty Crusaders was their attempt to do an Avengers, with Fly Man, Fly Girl, the Shield, the Comet and the Black Hood. Here’s all seven issues of the run in one yummy helping, as Archie’s super-heroes descended into an infinitely inept pastiche of Marvel’s ‘bickering heroes’ style. One of vintage comics’ guilty pleasures – go on, you know you want to try them… but be warned, you may hear the sound of your brains dribbling out of your ears…
