“Young at Heart”
In "Young at Heart," Archie tries to dodge football tryouts by faking a knee injury—only to find his lie backfires in ways he didn’t expect. Written by Al Hartley and brought to life with crisp art by Jon D'Agostino, this 1973 classic captures Archie’s trademark mix of charm and misadventure in a single, relatable moment. The cover by Jon D'Agostino perfectly captures the lighthearted tension of the story.
