In "Hi-Tech Solution," Archie tries jogging through Pickins' Park and encounters a mysterious, solemn girl who warns him about the perilous "Coffin Curve" on Thrill Hill.

Written and illustrated by Bob Bolling, with inks by Chic Stone, colors by Barry Grossman, and letters by Bill Yoshida, this eerie tale blends small-town charm with a touch of the supernatural. The cover by Stan Goldberg and Bob Smith captures the story's mix of nostalgia and suspense.

Archie takes up jogging through Pickins' Park, and meets a beautiful but unsmiling girl who warns him to be careful at the dangerous "Coffin Curve" at the bottom of Thrill Hill. Mr. Meeks tells Archie that this was Jill Johnson, a girl who was killed at Coffin Curve a decade earlier when a drunk driver couldn't make the curve and ran into her. Archie can't believe that he talked to a ghost, but when he's running past Coffin Curve that night, Jill reappears to save him from sharing her fate.
