Archie #214
In "Who Scent Him?", Archie and Jughead confront Pop about what they believe is prejudice when he refuses to serve their friend Josh—only to discover the real culprit is their own unpaid tabs. Written by Frank Doyle and illustrated by Harry Lucey with inks by Marty Epp, this 1971 classic captures the gang’s signature humor and heart, with a subtle twist on loyalty and responsibility. The cover by Dan DeCarlo and Rudy Lapick perfectly captures the moment’s playful tension.
