Life with Archie #268
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "Pleasure Bent," Jughead tries a new fishing strategy—using donuts as bait—while Betty turns heads at the beach in a mermaid tail costume, posing for photos and earning a few extra bucks. Written by Hal Smith and brought to life with vibrant art by Stan Goldberg, inks by Rudy Lapick, and colors by Barry Grossman, this 1988 slice of Riverdale life captures the town’s usual charm with a splash of seaside fun. The cover by Dan DeCarlo perfectly captures the lighthearted, playful spirit of the issue.
In "A Fishy Tale," Jughead tries a new fishing tactic—using donuts as bait—while Betty charms beachgoers in a mermaid tail costume, turning her seaside gig into a surprisingly profitable photo op.
In "Flood Tide," the sudden downpour sends the town into a panic as residents rally to sandbag the rising river. Miss Beazly, ever the dedicated neighbor, dashes through the storm to bring food and support to the weary volunteers.
