And he gets published in the Riverdale newspaper for the first time. Oh yeah, and Kevin gets ready to go on his first date! What?! Kevin's never been on a date before? That's the reaction everybody has, as they can't believe cool, good-looking, mild mannered Kevin Keller has never been on a date. And when he's made attempts in the past things go terribly wrong, it turns out Kevin Keller is actually bad at something - dating! But the Riverdale gang, along with his old friends and family step in to help ol' Kevin out. With his friends and family at the helm can anything possibly go wrong? Of course! But Kevin will get through it anyway! Cover price $2.99.
