Archie #544
In "The Snow Job," Archie takes the field as quarterback when Reggie falls ill, quietly stepping into the role despite his own talents. With his usual humility, he downplays his abilities, hoping to keep the girls from being let down if things don’t go perfectly. Written by John Albano and illustrated by Stan Goldberg, with inks by Bob Smith, colors by Barry Grossman, and letters by Vickie Williams, this 2004 issue features a cover by Stan Goldberg and Bob Smith.
Archie tries to earn enough cash for a date with Veronica by shoveling snow, but his plans take a slippery turn when he ends up digging her car out of a snowdrift at Lodge Mansion.
Archie steps in as quarterback when Reggie falls ill, determined to keep his performance under the radar so the girls won’t be let down if he doesn’t impress. With his usual charm and a dash of self-deprecating humor, he tries to blend in—though his hidden skills might be harder to ignore than he expects.
