Life with Archie #202

A foggy night sets the stage for mischief in Life with Archie #202, as the cover — penciled by Stan Goldberg — shows Archie and a dark-haired companion racing in a yellow convertible, hot on the trail of a mysterious driver in a red roadster who is apparently disguised as Archie and making off with Veronica. The cover copy teases "mystery and intrigue" with the story "The Figure in the Fog," and the scene delivers exactly that tension: two cars, one stolen identity, and Archie's unmistakable panic written all over his face. Frank Doyle's script, brought to life by Goldberg's art with inks by Rudy Lapick and lettering by Bill Yoshida, promises one of those wonderfully twisty Riverdale capers that made this 1979 series such fun.
