World of Archie (Jumbo Comics) Double Digest #38
In "When It Rains...", Archie finds himself unexpectedly nominated for class president after Betty's outburst at an assembly—despite his protestations. With his speech muffled by candy and a mistaken resemblance to Mr. Weatherbee, Archie's unintentional charm wins over the student body. Written, drawn, and inked by Bob Montana, this lighthearted story captures a classic Archie moment with a touch of schoolhouse humor. The cover by Fernando Ruiz and Rich Koslowski perfectly captures the playful chaos of the moment.
