Archie #428

A poolside collision is front and center on this October 1994 issue, with Archie and Veronica looking thoroughly startled as an unseen diver's legs send a wave of splash and chaos straight at them in the deep end. Stan Goldberg and Henry Scarpelli bring their reliably expressive, sun-drenched energy to the cover, capturing that quintessential summertime slapstick the series does so well. If the story title "Slip Sliding Summer Fun!" is any indication, the laughs inside are just as wet and wild as what's playing out on the cover.
