Archie and Me #41

Archie is in hot water again — the cover shows him holding a giant novelty clock emblazoned with a tiny caricature of Principal Weatherbee, while the real Weatherbee looms behind him in the school hallway, pointing straight toward the Detention Room door. Jughead and Veronica look on as Weatherbee delivers the punchline written right on the cover: his watch's hands always point toward the detention room, "just like I'm doing now, Archie!" This 1971 issue of Archie and Me promises the kind of cheerful, school-hall mischief — teased by the story title "Trouble Seat" — that made this series such a reliable treat.
