Archie #346

Archie takes snowsurfing to wild new heights on this March 1987 cover, barreling down the slope on a snowboard while Veronica and a friend look on in disbelief — one declaring it takes fearlessness, the other adding it takes being "completely whacko." A tumbled figure in the snow nearby and flying debris suggest Archie's run has been every bit as chaotic as advertised, all rendered with Dan DeCarlo's effortlessly expressive linework. It's a snapshot of the gang's winter hijinks that captures the lighthearted Riverdale spirit perfectly.
