Archie's Date Time #5
In "The Wrong End," Archie finds himself tangled in a web of mix-ups when a girl with a beach umbrella identical to Betty’s sets off a chain of misunderstandings, sparking jealousy in two rival boys. Written by Frank Doyle and brought to life with warm, expressive art by Harry Lucey and inks by Marty Epp, this 1985 classic captures the chaos of teenage romance with a touch of humor and heart. The cover, a vibrant and playful scene by Dan DeCarlo, perfectly captures the lighthearted tension of the moment.
