Archie... Archie Andrews, Where Are You? Comics Digest Magazine #63
In "Blow the Man Down," Archie Andrews discovers a pair of magic shoes from a passing magician, instantly turning him into a blur of motion—much to his surprise and everyone else’s amusement. As he races through Riverdale, trying to impress everyone with his speed, he keeps hearing the same quiet message: slow down and appreciate the moment. Written by Frank Doyle and illustrated by Dan DeCarlo Jr. with inks by Rudy Lapick and letters by Bill Yoshida, this 1989 adventure captures Archie’s chaotic charm, all wrapped in a cover by Dan DeCarlo and Jim DeCarlo.
