“Germ Warfare”

In "Germ Warfare," Archie #169 (1966), a single dollar bill on the sidewalk ignites a classic clash between Archie’s impulse to grab it and Veronica’s squeamish aversion to sidewalk germs—fueling a battle of wits and hygiene that’s as sticky as it is funny. Written by Frank Doyle and illustrated by Harry Lucey, with inks by Marty Epp and lettering by Marty Epp, the issue captures the era’s lighthearted charm, all capped off by Dan DeCarlo’s iconic cover pencils and Vincent DeCarlo’s inks.
