“The Gay Blades”

Archie #217 from 1972 serves up pure Riverdale comedy with a cover by Dan DeCarlo and Rudy Lapick that says it all: a still-snoozing Archie gets launched skyward from a spring-loaded bed with a resounding "SPRONG," while his bewildered parents watch from the doorway — and a caption cheerfully declares it's Dilton's invention for getting Archie to school on time. Up in the corner, a chaotic chase scene hints at even more mayhem packed inside this 15-cent issue.
