Life with Archie #100

Aug 1970 · Archie · 0.15 USD
“Wipe Out”

In "Wipe Out," the Archies roll into a town ruled by a cocky racer named Spike Hanlon, whose arrogance has left everyone else intimidated. When the only other driver able to challenge him is sidelined, Reggie steps up—turning his own brand of showmanship into a clever strategy to outwit the arrogant champion. Written by Frank Doyle and illustrated by Samm Schwartz, with colors by Barry Grossman and letters by Schwartz, this 1970 classic features a cover by Dan DeCarlo and Rudy Lapick, capturing the high-octane fun of a race where attitude might just be the winning edge.

The Archies arrive in a town where an obnoxious racer named Spike Hanlon is throwing his weight around. The only driver who can beat him is injured, so Reggie offers to enter the race instead.
