Archie's Date Book #[nn]
In "Dating Woes," Archie grapples with a string of romantic missteps, turning to the usual suspects for help—Reggie’s Black Book and Dilton’s high-tech dating database—only to find they’re no match for his real-life confusion. Written and illustrated by Al Hartley, this 1981 installment captures Archie’s persistent blind spot when it comes to the affection right under his nose, all drawn in the creator’s distinctive style. The cover by Al Hartley perfectly captures the comic’s lighthearted, self-aware charm.
