Archie Comics Digest #243
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "No Worries," Archie takes a rare break from his usual romantic dilemmas, deciding to enjoy a carefree day—until the baseball game at Riverdale Park forces him to pick teams, and suddenly, even the simplest choices feel like a test. Written by Barbara Slate and illustrated by Jeff Shultz, with inks by Al Milgrom and colors by Barry Grossman, this lighthearted moment captures Archie’s charm with a touch of classic humor. The cover, by Stan Goldberg and Bob Smith, perfectly captures the playful spirit of the story.
Archie tries to enjoy a carefree day without stressing over Betty and Veronica, but his peace is short-lived when he’s suddenly tasked with picking teams for a baseball game—forcing him to choose between the two girls he’s always torn between.
Archie and Jughead accidentally lose the group’s homework just before the deadline, sending everyone on a frantic search through Riverdale High’s halls and hallways to find it before Miss Grundy collects the assignments. With time running out and the stakes higher than ever, the gang scrambles to track down the missing papers—before the consequences hit.
In "Kid K.O.", Chuck's obsession with Chewy-Dewy candy bars is derailing his training and his chances in the upcoming boxing match, much to the concern of his teammates. As they try to help him cut back, a surprising connection emerges between Chuck’s sweet tooth and his rival, Rudy Wrotten from Broxton High.
