“Smooch Me to Sleep”

Fencing has never looked so romantic — the cover of Archie #311, drawn by Dan DeCarlo, drops Archie and a blonde Betty into fencing whites, foils in hand, while two onlookers marvel that Archie has somehow managed to get past "Betty's Guard!" It's a charming sports-themed setup that perfectly captures the playful, flirtatious energy Riverdale does so well. Inside, writer Frank Doyle and artist Dan DeCarlo Jr. bring their reliable wit to bear in a story titled "Smooch Me to Sleep" — promising exactly the kind of lighthearted fun that made 1981 a great time to follow this crew.
