Archie and Me #142
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "The Cutting Remark," Archie's offhand joke about Mr. Weatherbee's weight sets off an unexpected chain of events when the principal takes it personally—now determined to prove he's in shape, he's tackling an obstacle course behind the school. Written and drawn by Bob Bolling, with colors by Barry Grossman and letters by Bill Yoshida, this 1983 classic captures the quiet tension of regret and the absurdity of pride, all rendered in the timeless style of Dan DeCarlo’s cover.
When Mr. Weatherbee overhears Archie making a joke about his weight, the principal takes it personally—leading to an unexpected obstacle course challenge in the school’s back lot. Archie, wracked with guilt, must navigate the fallout of his careless remark as the situation spirals in ways he never expected.
Betty takes the stage—literally—when she writes and directs a school play about nutrition for elementary kids, but her carefully planned production quickly spirals when Archie and Reggie’s rivalry takes center stage. With egos clashing and snacks flying, even the most wholesome message gets lost in the chaos.
