Archie's Double Digest Magazine #79
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "Wheel Fun," Archie finds himself behind the wheel of Mr. Weatherbee’s Yakasaki Pigeon—just repaired after a past mishap—only to have it seized by police during a high-speed chase. With a bank robbery in progress and a getaway car cleverly disguised as a Chubby Charlie's Chicken Shack float weaving through downtown Riverdale, Archie’s quiet drive turns into a chaotic ride he never saw coming. Written and illustrated by Bob Bolling, with lettering by Bill Yoshida, this classic adventure features a vibrant cover by Stan Goldberg and Rudy Lapick.
In "Quiz Fizz," Betty and Veronica find themselves on the wild side of game show TV, squaring off on *Let's Make a Price* where wacky costumes and tricky pricing challenges test more than just smarts. With their usual rivalry on full display, the two navigate absurd outfits and high-stakes guessing, all while trying to outwit each other in a contest that’s equal parts fun and fashion disaster.
When Archie sets out to return Mr. Weatherbee’s repaired Yakasaki Pigeon, he’s suddenly caught in the middle of a wild chase after a bank robbery gone public—only to find the getaway car is a disguised Chubby Charlie’s Chicken Shack float. The whole town turns into a high-speed obstacle course as Archie, the car, and a flock of confused pigeons are swept into the chaos.
Archie’s latest attempt to dodge Veronica’s wrath takes a feathery turn when he claims he was bird-watching to explain why he was looking at another girl. Now he’s stuck building a bird-watchers’ club to keep up the lie, with only Jughead’s sarcastic support and a suspiciously well-organized field guide to back him up.
