Archie Giant Series Magazine #175

In "The Way the Ball Bounces," Archie faces a surprising rival when the son of the Lodge gardener catches Betty and Veronica’s attention with his charm and confidence—especially after standing up to Moose. With a clever clue from Dilton, Archie finds a way to bring the newcomer back down to Earth, though the outcome remains delightfully uncertain. Written and drawn by Al Hartley, with inks by Jon D'Agostino and colors by Barry Grossman, this 1970 issue features a cover by Dan DeCarlo.
