Archie's Pals 'n' Gals #24

In "Hair It Is!", Veronica tries a bold new look with a wig, only to be hurt when Archie doesn’t recognize her—until she agrees to forgive him. But when Archie later mistakes Betty in the same wig for Veronica, his confusion lands him right back in trouble.

In "Lawman," Archie takes on a surprising case when Mr. Weatherbee enlists him to track down a persistent truant named Billie Blake—only to discover, much to his confusion, that Billie is actually a girl. The mix-up sets off a lighthearted chase through Riverdale, blending Archie’s usual charm with a twist that keeps the mystery just out of reach.

In "Where the Boys Are," Veronica and Betty team up on a mischievous mission: to stand up every boy in Riverdale on a single night as revenge for their endless romantic frustrations. But when Jughead casually drops the news that the street corner they’ve been sending boys to is actually the new location of a model school, their prank begins to spiral in unexpected ways.

In "The Message," Veronica enlists Reggie to deliver a note to Archie, but when Reggie decides to sabotage the plan by passing it to Moose instead, chaos ensues. The miscommunication sets off a chain of misunderstandings that quickly spiral out of control—exactly the kind of lighthearted, high-school shenanigans that make this classic Archie tale a standout.

In "Pass It On," Archie tries to explain to Veronica that he’ll be at a boxing match with his dad instead of taking her to the dance, only to find Mr. Lodge and Reggie turning his honest attempt into a joke. The moment captures the mix of awkwardness and camaraderie that defines their high school world.
