Archie's Girls Betty and Veronica #146

When Veronica handcuffs herself to Archie to ruin Betty’s date, she’s shocked to learn the so-called "date" was just a swamp buggy ride—leaving her stranded in the middle of the muck with Archie, and no way to escape.

In "Practice Makes Perfect," Veronica faces off against her father Mr. Lodge in a battle of wills over learning to play an instrument, with the entire neighborhood caught in the crossfire of her stubborn resistance. The story captures the classic Archie humor of everyday teen drama, where even a simple request can spiral into a full-blown household standoff.

Veronica flaunts a track medal from Reggie in front of Archie, sparking a competitive fire that leads Archie to enter the next track and field meet—pushing himself to the edge in a bid to prove something.

In "The Rich Get Results," Veronica puts her wealth to playful use by having one of her father's assistants complete three unusual tasks—just to show Archie that money really does open doors. Written with classic Archie charm, this lighthearted tale explores the perks of privilege through a series of whimsical, high-society antics.
