Chuck is African American and the son of Floyd Clayton , who works at Riverdale High School as the school's coach. Chuck enjoys participating in school sports (particularly Football and Basketball ), and also is an aspiring Comic Strip Artist ; he hopes to pursue this as a career someday. Chuck was created for the Archie comics in the early 1970s , as a means of adding diversity to the (up until then, all- Caucasian ) cast of characters. Chuck has a girlfriend named Nancy . Her last name has been variously given as ''Harris'', ''Jackson'' and ''Woods''. Nothing else seems to be known of her except that she is one of Betty Cooper 's, Veronica Lodge 's and Midge Klump 's best friends. First Appearance: 1974 Age: 17 Height: 5’11 Weight: 160 Hair: Black Birthday: June 8 (Gemini) Chuck Clayton grew up a shy little loner but, after being unhesitatingly accepted as an equal by Archie and his friends, he grew up to become a confident, mature teenager. Chuck is first and foremost an artist; a cartoonist whose greatest ambition is to someday become a professional comic book and comic strip illustrator. Despite the long hours he spends practicing his craft, he still finds time to participate in all Riverdale high’s varsity sports, study his own African-American heritage, and spend time with his girlfriend, Nancy Woods . {Link without Title} |
