World of Archie #8
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "It’s All Downhill!", Archie’s latest mishap takes a wild turn when Reggie insists the truth behind his sled race injury is far less heroic than it seems—claiming Archie swerved not to save a child, but because he lost control. Written by Dan Parent and brought to life with energetic art by Rex Lindsey, this 1994 slice of Riverdale life captures the town’s usual mix of humor and rivalry, with coloring by Barry Grossman and lettering by Bill Yoshida. The cover, also by Lindsey, perfectly captures the moment’s chaotic spirit.
In "Boast of the Town!", Reggie Mantle takes center stage with a bold claim: Archie Andrews didn’t swerve to avoid a child during the sled race—no, it was just pure lack of control. With the whole town watching, Reggie’s confidence only grows as he spins the tale, but Archie’s quiet demeanor and the reactions of Betty, Veronica, Jughead, and the rest of the gang suggest the truth might be harder to pin down than Reggie thinks.
