“Gymnastic Bombastics”
In "Gymnastic Bombastics," Betty’s attempt to prep for her babysitting gig takes a wild turn when a bedtime story tape lulls her into a nap behind the wheel—sending her car straight into the lake. With Dan DeCarlo’s signature charm and expressive art bringing the chaos to life, this 1988 digest issue captures the classic Archie energy in a perfectly absurd, high-spirited moment.
