Chuck Clayton
Charles "Chuck" Clayton is a teenage fictional character published by Archie Comics. Chuck lives in the fictional town of Riverdale, and is the friend of Archie Andrews, Betty Cooper, Jughead Jones, and other students at Riverdale High School.
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 known of her except that she is one of Betty Cooper's, Veronica Lodge's and Midge Klump's best friends.
