In "Merry Mayhem," Betty and Veronica make a snowy misstep when they abandon their packages after a surprise snowball attack—only for the prankster boys to take matters (and the parcels) into their own hands. Written by Frank Doyle and brought to life with Dan DeCarlo’s signature charm, the story unfolds with playful chaos, all rendered in the vibrant colors of Barry Grossman and the crisp inks of Jim DeCarlo. The cover by Dan DeCarlo captures the winter mischief perfectly.
