The story is illustrated by Harry Lucey, with a vibrant cover by Dan DeCarlo and Rudy Lapick.
In "The Truth Hurts," Archie finds himself roped into a last-minute commercial shoot for Mr. Lodge, only to end up airborne when the hot air balloon they’re using unexpectedly lifts off the ground—leaving him and the usually unflappable Mr. Lodge dangling above Riverdale. With the sky as their stage and the whole town below, Archie’s usual charm is put to the test in this lighthearted, high-flying misadventure.
When Archie dons a ski mask to sneak around with Veronica’s packages, Reggie sees his chance to play a prank—by having Archie "taken out of commission" so he can slip into Archie’s disguise and fool everyone. With the mask now worn by a very different kind of hero, chaos and mistaken identity are guaranteed.
