Life with Archie #141
In "The Blackmoor Emerald," the Archie gang dives into their favorite game of "Missing Person," only to find the stakes rise when Reggie vanishes—only to be discovered eating a spoiled cheese danish, turning a lighthearted chase into a race against food poisoning. Written by Frank Doyle and brought to life with vibrant energy by Stan Goldberg (art), Mario Acquaviva (inks), Barry Grossman (color), and Bill Yoshida (letters), this 1974 classic blends humor and heart with a twist that keeps the mystery—and the danger—very real. The cover, by Stan Goldberg and Jon D'Agostino, captures the tension with a perfectly timed moment of panic.
