In "Grin and Bear It," Archie’s attempt to thank Betty for helping with homework backfires hilariously when he tries to deliver a giant teddy bear to her—only to find the journey itself is a test of nerve and endurance. With art by Stan Goldberg and inks by Jon D'Agostino, this 1973 classic captures the usual chaos of Riverdale life, all drawn with the charm of Dan DeCarlo’s cover and the lively colors of Barry Grossman.
