Archie and Me #9
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "The Hero," Archie’s gratitude turns into an unexpected burden when he vows to serve Mr. Weatherbee after the principal catches him from a flagpole fall. Things get increasingly awkward until Miss Grundy suggests a way out: have Archie return the favor by saving Mr. Weatherbee’s life. Written by Frank Doyle and illustrated by Bob Bolling, with inks by Marty Epp and letters by Marty Epp, this 1966 classic features a cover by Dan DeCarlo and Rudy Lapick.
In "The Hero," Archie’s gratitude for Mr. Weatherbee’s quick rescue from a flagpole plunge spirals into an over-the-top devotion that leaves the principal overwhelmed. When Miss Grundy suggests the only way to restore normalcy is for Archie to return the favor, the stage is set for a classic teen comedy of errors—no spoilers, just classic Riverdale chaos.
