In "The Bottom Line," Archie finds himself in the spotlight—literally—courting the attention of Sheila, the shapely new tennis pro, while Betty does her best to keep things on the court and off the romance. Written by George Gladir and brought to life with crisp, classic charm by Dan DeCarlo Jr. and Jim DeCarlo, this 1985 issue captures the familiar mix of high school drama and playful rivalry. The cover by Dan DeCarlo perfectly captures the moment’s tension, all in a 65-cent comic from the golden age of Archie.
