Written by Frank Doyle and brought to life with Dan DeCarlo’s crisp inks and Vincent DeCarlo’s sharp lettering, this 1961 classic captures the gang’s chaotic energy. The cover by Harry Lucey and Terry Szenics perfectly captures the mischievous tension of the moment.
In "Checkmate," Archie finds himself outmaneuvered when another guy starts spending time with Veronica, prompting Jughead to suggest a chess match instead of a fistfight. With the stakes set on winning Veronica’s favor, Archie must rely on strategy—and a little help from his friends—when the game turns more serious than expected.
In "Use Your Brain," Reggie hatches a scheme that pulls Archie and Dilton into a high-stakes prank: sneaking into the municipal power company to hijack their new computer and cheat on homework. With Dilton’s brains and Archie’s charm, the trio faces the challenge of pulling off the heist—before the computer does something unexpected.
