Archie Giant Series Magazine #149
In "The Buddy System," Archie and the gang rally around Mr. Weatherbee when he's hospitalized from burnout, sending him flowers as a thoughtful gesture. But when Jughead is tasked with delivering the gift, his famously unorthodox approach leads the group to panic—mistaking a simple misunderstanding for a tragic accident. Written by Frank Doyle and brought to life with energetic art by Samm Schwartz, the cover by Dan DeCarlo captures the moment’s escalating chaos, all in a 25-cent comic from 1967.
