Archie Giant Series Magazine #623

In "Clean-Up Hitter," Betty and Veronica find themselves teaming up with an unexpected visitor from space—a mysterious alien working to restore Riverdale’s natural beauty ahead of the arrival of Queen Zelda from the planet Julius. Written by Frank Doyle and brought to life with Dan DeCarlo’s signature style and Dan Parent’s dynamic art, this 1991 adventure blends suburban charm with a touch of intergalactic intrigue, all rendered in vibrant colors by Barry Grossman and crisp lettering by Bill Yoshida. The cover, a vibrant collaboration by DeCarlo, Parent, and Flood, captures the whimsical tone of the story.
