☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "Archie's Car," Archie faces a creative crisis when his latest car designs keep failing, leaving him torn between doubt and despair—literally, as an Archie angel and devil debate his next move. With Betty’s quiet encouragement and a heartfelt talk about faith and the Bible, Archie finds the strength to push through. Written and illustrated by Al Hartley, this 1979 issue features full art and lettering by the creator, with cover art also by Hartley.
Archie and Jughead, inspired by Reggie’s flashy van, hit the junkyard for a wild car makeover, hauling back a pile of parts and dragging Betty into the project. With a mix of scrap metal, questionable ideas, and plenty of teenage energy, they set out to transform Archie’s clunker into something—well, something not quite what anyone expected.
In "Shoulder to Shoulder!", Archie faces a crisis when his latest car designs keep falling apart, leaving him demoralized and torn between an Archie angel and devil offering conflicting advice. Betty steps in with quiet wisdom, guiding him through faith and scripture, reminding him that even in setbacks, there’s strength in doing what’s right.
When Mr. Weatherbee’s car sputters to a stop, Archie steps in with a grin, eager to help—despite the man’s polite refusal. With typical teenage enthusiasm, Archie charges ahead, ready to lend a hand, whether it’s needed or not.
