“Can You Top This?”

In "Can You Top This?", Archie, Jughead, and Betty attempt to outwit a neighborhood bulldog they’ve dubbed a bully, leading to a series of escalating pranks. Reggie, mishearing their plan as a scheme against Moose, jumps in with enthusiastic glee—unaware he’s now part of a much bigger game. Bob Bolling’s art, with Chic Stone’s inks and Barry Grossman’s colors, brings the classic Archie charm to life, while Dan DeCarlo’s cover captures the playful chaos of the moment.
