Pep Comic Issue 65 includes the story “Archie in the Weeny Roast!”. Archie takes a job delivering weenies for Mr. Schmidt’s Delicatessen, and it inspires him to plan a weenie roast with the gang on his day off. But in typical Archie fashion, he mixes up the dates—and now he has to juggle work, fun, and a last-minute scheme, all while trying to dodge Reggie’s attempts to sabotage him. Other stories in this issue include “Katy Keene The Pin-Up Queen”, “Lil Jinx”, “The Shield and Dusty in Revive the Dead”, and more.
