Archie Comics Digest #265

In "Splash Down!", Archie’s latest beach-day experiment takes a wild turn when he brings a big magnet to the shore, only to find that every metal item around—keys, soda cans, even Jughead’s prized sandwich—starts flying toward it. As Archie and Jughead bicker over who “they” really are, the entire beach descends into a chaotic, clanging spectacle. Written by Frank Doyle and illustrated by Harry Lucey with inks by Chic Stone, colors by Barry Grossman, and letters by Bill Yoshida, this playful, high-energy tale captures the classic charm of Riverdale’s misadventures. The cover, by Jeff Shultz and Rich Koslowski, perfectly captures the moment of metallic mayhem.
