Laugh Comics / Laugh #221
In "The Wheeler-Dealer," Archie faces a modern dilemma: Veronica’s relentless phone calls every ten minutes keep him on a tight leash, while Betty takes a more traditional approach to staying in touch. Written and illustrated by Al Hartley, with inks by Jon D'Agostino and colors by Barry Grossman, this 1969 classic captures teenage romance with a playful twist. The cover by Dan DeCarlo and Rudy Lapick perfectly captures the lighthearted chaos.
