Archie at Riverdale High #62

Set against a snowy Riverdale Winter Carnival, this 1979 issue captures a wonderfully chaotic moment on the ice — Betty has taken a spectacular tumble, stars flying, while Veronica looks on in alarm, Archie reacts with wide-eyed concern, and a friend rushes to help amid a flurry of speech bubbles declaring an "unusual run of bad luck." The cover tagline promises that the carnival's fun and games escalate into an all-out competition in "Of Fraud and Friendship," making this a cozy, energetic slice of Riverdale's winter hijinks at its most entertainingly slapstick.
