In "Someone to Watch Over Me," Archie’s small-town rhythm gets a jolt when Sam Scorpio, an exchange student from Jupiter, makes a move on Midge, sparking tension with Moose. When Moose, already nursing an injury, steps up to challenge Sam, Dilton steps in with a clever invention—his mental arm wrestling device—putting science to the test in a showdown that’s equal parts humor and heart. Written by Rich Margopoulos and illustrated by Howard Bender, with inks by Jon D'Agostino and colors by Barry Grossman, this 1990 issue features a cover by Dan Parent and Jon D'Agostino.
