Archie #235
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "Here's the Pitch," Archie and Reggie find themselves on the verge of a rare moment of regret after teasing Jughead, only to learn he’s vanished—headed for the docks and a mysterious tramp steamer bound for parts unknown. Written by Frank Doyle and brought to life with Harry Lucey’s expressive art, Chic Stone’s inks, Barry Grossman’s colors, and Bill Yoshida’s crisp lettering, this 1974 classic captures the quiet panic of a friendship tested by a joke gone too far. Dan DeCarlo’s cover, inked by Rudy Lapick, perfectly captures the moment’s tension.
When Archie and Reggie tease Jughead, only to hear he’s about to sail off on a tramp steamer, their prank quickly turns into panic as they race to the docks, fearing they’ve pushed him too far. The story captures the classic Archie trio’s mix of mischief and misplaced guilt, all set against the seaside backdrop of Riverdale’s harbor.
When Jughead spins another outlandish tale about history, Archie rolls his eyes—until Moose needs a convincing excuse for a school project, and Jughead’s wild imagination just might save the day.
