“It Must Be Magic!”

In "It Must Be Magic!", Archie enlists Betty’s help to bake a vinegar and green tomato pie—no easy feat, given the ingredients and the stakes. After a whirlwind of research, shopping, and baking, the pie is finally ready, only to be met with a surprise twist when Betty finds out Archie’s true reason for making it. Written by Kathleen Webb and brought to life with vibrant art by Stan Goldberg, inks by Bob Smith, and colors by Barry Grossman, this 2002 issue captures the charm and humor of Riverdale’s most iconic trio—complete with a cover by Goldberg and Smith that perfectly captures the moment’s absurdity.
