Life with Archie #68

A street-side near-miss sets the scene for Life with Archie #68, as a red convertible screeches to a halt — sending a blonde girl tumbling through the air while Veronica, Archie, and Reggie react with wide-eyed alarm on the sidewalk. Up top, a motorcycle and a sporty car race across the masthead, hinting at the fast-paced energy promised inside with the story "The Case of the Hesitant Hero." This December 1967 issue delivers the kind of good-natured, high-stakes chaos that made the Archie series a perennial favorite — and at 12 cents, it was quite the deal.
