“Santa in Blue”

In "Santa in Blue," Archie faces a rare disciplinary moment when he's caught speeding—20 mph in a 15 mph zone—only to have his friends utterly refuse to believe his old jalopy could actually go that fast. Mr. Andrews, determined to teach Archie a lesson, arranges a surprise Christmas ticket from his brother, a police officer, turning a mundane traffic stop into a holiday twist. Written by Frank Doyle and illustrated by Harry Lucey with lettering by Bill Yoshida, this lighthearted 1978 tale blends small-town charm with a festive surprise, all captured in a cover by Harry Lucey.
