Everything's Archie #103

Stan Goldberg's cover for this 1982 entry in the long-running digest series captures a perfectly breezy summer sidewalk scene, with Archie operating a radio-controlled race car while Betty, Veronica, and Reggie look on — the girls delivering a sharp punchline about making boys go in circles without any remote needed. The playful banter in the speech bubbles sets exactly the kind of lighthearted tone that made Everything's Archie a reliable warm-weather read, and the promise to "beat the heat" splashed across the top feels entirely earned. At 60 cents, this issue also teases prehistoric laughs in the Archie 1 backup strip, making it a genuinely fun package from start to finish.
