Archie (Jumbo Comics) Double Digest #280
In "Beachwatch!", Archie and Mr. Weatherbee find themselves in a splashy mishap at the beach, leading to an unexpected jet-ski ride that quickly goes off-script. When the jet-ski breaks down on a deserted shore, Archie’s search for help takes a detour—naturally—while Mr. Weatherbee learns the hard way about sun protection. Written by George Gladir and illustrated by Chic Stone with inks by Rudy Lapick and letters by Bill Yoshida, this lighthearted summer adventure features Dan Parent on the cover.
