“Temptation”

In "Temptation," Archie's holiday cheer hits a snag when Jughead bets that even the perpetually mischievous Reggie can't resist the spirit of Christmas—though his usual antics suggest otherwise. Written by Frank Doyle and brought to life with classic flair by artist Harry Lucey, inker Chic Stone, and colorist Barry Grossman, this 1974 slice of Riverdale life captures the season's quiet magic through familiar faces and familiar friction. The cover, by Dan DeCarlo and Rudy Lapick, perfectly captures the lighthearted tension of the moment.
