Archie #568

Archie lands the sweetest summer gig on this Stan Goldberg and Bob Smith cover, perched atop a lifeguard stand, phone in hand, grinning ear to ear — because the head lifeguard just ordered him to work an extra shift surrounded by a beach full of admiring company. A puzzled Jughead looks on from below while a crowd of girls gathers around the stand, and Betty can be spotted nearby, making it clear that Archie's "extra duty" is anything but a hardship. Celebrating Archie Comics' 65th anniversary, issue #568 captures everything that makes Riverdale's favorite redhead so enduringly fun — right place, right time, wrong reasons.
