Archie Comics Digest #140
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "Bad Hair Day!", Riverdale High’s basketball woes hit a new low when Coach Kleats quits in frustration over the team’s losing streak. With Mr. Weatherbee stepping in as coach, the situation only gets worse—especially when his unorthodox methods and, well, hairdo, seem to bring even more chaos to the court. Written by George Gladir and brought to life with vibrant energy by Stan Goldberg (pencils), Joe Sinnott (inks), Barry Grossman (colors), and Bill Yoshida (letters), this 1996 issue features a cover by Stan Goldberg and Henry Scarpelli that perfectly captures the absurdity of the moment.
In "This Is Your Life," Mr. Weatherbee finds himself questioning the meaning of it all—until Archie steps in with a heartfelt reminder of the impact he’s had on students over the years. Through a series of lighthearted flashbacks, Archie shows the principal how his guidance shaped the lives of former students, offering a warm, humorous look at the quiet influence of a dedicated teacher.
In "Game Aim," Mr. Weatherbee takes over as Riverdale High’s basketball coach after Coach Kleats quits in frustration over the team’s losing streak—only to discover that running a team is harder than he thought. With the players struggling and morale at an all-time low, his unorthodox leadership puts the entire season in jeopardy.
