Archie's Double Digest Magazine #141

In "Ground Game," Little Archie steps in to help Chick Cooper with his paper route when Chick comes down with a cold. With Dilton’s experimental paper-throwing machine in tow, Little Archie enlists Spotty to pull it—only for the dog to bolt when he spots Yakaboo, Mrs. Skratchlow’s notorious cat. Written and drawn by Bob Bolling, with colors by Barry Grossman and letters by Bill Yoshida, this lighthearted adventure captures the chaos of a misfired delivery system and the unlikely heroism of a kid and his dog. The cover by Stan Goldberg and Bob Smith perfectly captures the scene’s playful energy.
