Archie #179
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "Trust in Me," Archie navigates the usual chaos of teenage romance, spending a date with Betty trying to dodge Veronica—only to end up spying on her as she’s out with someone else. Written by Frank Doyle and illustrated by Harry Lucey, with lettering by Bill Yoshida, this 1968 classic captures the awkward charm of high school crushes, all framed by Dan DeCarlo’s iconic cover art and Rudy Lapick’s crisp inks.
In "Trust in Me," Archie’s date with Betty quickly spirals into a game of cat-and-mouse as he alternates between dodging Veronica’s gaze and secretly tracking her on a date with someone else—his own jealousy turning the evening into a whirlwind of awkward glances and misdirected attention.
In "Pharaoh Foul," Jughead and Veronica stumble upon a hidden chamber in an Egyptian tomb, where they don colorful regalia and pose as the Pharaoh and his Queen Ah Shetup, turning a dusty adventure into a hilariously over-the-top royal farce.
In "Line Drive," Archie hatches a mischievous plan by attaching a paint can with a hole to the back of Reggie's car, setting off a chain of antics as he and Jughead trail Reggie and Veronica on their date. The story unfolds with classic teen humor, turning a simple prank into a chaotic chase through the streets of Riverdale.
