Archie Giant Series Magazine #160
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join free"Waltz Faults" is a standout entry in the Archie Giant Series Magazine, featuring a delightfully absurd twist on a classic high school sports story. When a lab accident leaves Archie temporarily radioactive, his newfound magnetic pull turns a basketball into an extension of his hand—just in time for the big game. Written by Frank Doyle and brought to life with energetic art by Harry Lucey, with inks and letters by Terry Szenics, this 1969 gem blends sci-fi silliness with the familiar charm of Riverdale’s most famous teen.
In "Waltz Faults," Archie teams up with Jughead to win a dance contest, but the plan hinges on special glasses that reveal hidden dance steps painted on the floor—only to have Reggie throw a wrench into the routine with a sabotage of his own.
When a lab mishap leaves Archie oddly charged, his hands attract basketballs with a magnetic pull—just in time for the big game. The unexpected power turns heads, but can he keep his cool under the spotlight?
When a strange chemical mix and a malfunctioning machine leave Archie’s hand invisible, chaos ensues—especially when the same bizarre phenomenon strikes Mr. Weatherbee’s head, turning the school principal into a floating head with a very bad day.
In "Cliff Hanger," Archie declares he’s done with dating after spotting Veronica with a guy, much to the shock of Jughead and Reggie, who are less than thrilled by his sudden break from romance. The trio’s usual dynamic takes a funny turn as Archie’s new vow to stay single sends them into a spiral of disbelief and comedic reactions.
