“The Bellboy”

In "The Bellboy," Archie’s latest prank backfires in the most delightfully chaotic way—after tweaking Dilton’s alarm to mess with him, the whole plan spirals when both Archie and Dilton end up late again the next day. Written by Frank Doyle and brought to life with Dan DeCarlo Jr.’s crisp art, Jim DeCarlo’s inks, Barry Grossman’s colors, and Bill Yoshida’s letters, this 1978 classic captures the timeless humor of Riverdale’s misfits. The cover by Dan DeCarlo and Rudy Lapick perfectly captures the mischief in motion.
