Archie's Pals 'n' Gals #136
In "Games People Play," Archie makes a reckless bet with Reggie that no one can beat his time at the mini-grand prix, only to spend the entire afternoon trying to best his own record—right in the middle of his date with Betty. Written and drawn by Bob Bolling, with inks by Rudy Lapick, colors by Barry Grossman, and letters by Bill Yoshida, this 1979 classic captures the charm and comedic timing of Archie’s world. Stan Goldberg’s cover perfectly captures the lighthearted chaos of the moment.
