“The Game of the Name”

In "The Game of the Name," Reggie's playful prank takes a hilarious turn when he convinces Archie to drive his new car—whom he’s affectionately named Gertrude—on nightly joyrides, then spins tales about the car to Betty and Veronica, leaving out the key detail that Gertrude is, in fact, a car. The joke nearly backfires when Turk and his girlfriend, also named Gertrude, show up, turning the whole misunderstanding into a classic Archie-style mix-up. Written and illustrated by Bob Bolling, with inks by Rudy Lapick, colors by Barry Grossman, and letters by Bill Yoshida, this 1975 gem features a delightfully silly premise brought to life by Dan DeCarlo’s iconic cover art.
