Archie #299
In "Late Date," Archie finds himself on a surprisingly smooth ride when Veronica sets him up with her snobby cousin Cynthia—only to discover she’s more down-to-earth than expected, enjoying his jalopy, hot dog dinners, and even helping fix a flat. Written by George Gladir and brought to life with Dan DeCarlo Jr.’s art, Jim DeCarlo’s inks, and B. Grossman’s colors, this 1980 classic captures the charm of Riverdale’s usual antics with a fresh twist. The cover by Dan DeCarlo perfectly captures the moment’s playful tension.
