Archie and Me #105
In "The Word Game," Mr. Weatherbee takes a surprising turn on the river, outpacing Archie and Reggie in a kayaking challenge—only to reveal his unorthodox secret: his weight creates a hole in the kayak, letting him walk along the riverbed. Written and illustrated by Dick Malmgren, with inks by Rudy Lapick, colors by Barry Grossman, and letters by Bill Yoshida, this 1978 issue offers a delightfully absurd twist on schoolyard rivalry. The cover by Dick Malmgren captures the moment with classic Archie charm.
