Archie's Joke Book Magazine #77

Riverdale's most accident-prone redhead takes on a flaming limbo bar in this April 1964 installment of Archie's Joke Book Magazine, and the cover — penciled by Samm Schwartz — says it all: Archie is already on fire (literally) while Betty watches wide-eyed in the foreground and Veronica and a bemused onlooker cheer from the side. The speech bubble's deadpan prediction that Archie will be "the hottest limbo dancer" lands with perfect comic timing, setting up a issue full of the cheerful, good-natured humor that made this series a staple of 1960s funny-book racks.
