“The Big Challenge”

In "The Big Challenge," Archie stumbles into a whimsical mishap when he stops by Dilton's garage on his way to caddy for Mr. Weatherbee at the Hackleton Golf Club. There, the inventive teen unveils his latest gadget, the "pocket snoozer"—an inflatable mattress small enough to fit in your pocket—only for Archie to accidentally leave the valve open and find himself drifting skyward. Written by Bob Bolling and illustrated by Bob Bolling with Chic Stone on inks, Barry Grossman on colors, and Bill Yoshida on letters, this lighthearted adventure captures the classic charm of the Archie universe, with Stan Goldberg and Bob Smith handling the playful cover.

On the way to caddy for Mr. Weatherbee at the Hackleton Golf Club, a sleepy Archie stops off at Dilton's garage, where the diminutive genius unveils his latest invention: the "pocket snoozer," an inflatable mattress that fits into your pocket. Unfortunately, Archie leaves the valve on while taking a nap on the mattress, and soon finds himself airborne, floating over Mr. Weatherbee's club.
