In "Cheer Weary," Archie’s concern for his friends’ safety leads to an unexpected twist: instead of playing sports, the gang joins the cheerleading squad, thinking it’ll be a breeze. But as they quickly learn, cheering isn’t as simple as it looks—especially when enthusiasm meets chaos. Written by George Gladir and brought to life with energetic art by Samm Schwartz, the interior work is completed by Schwartz on inks and Barry Grossman on colors, while Dan DeCarlo’s cover captures the lighthearted frenzy.
