Archie's Pals 'n' Gals #35

In "Getting Ready," Veronica pulls a clever prank by commissioning a life-size wax figure of herself, then sending her chauffeur to trail Archie in a car with the dummy, hoping to keep him from spending time with Betty while she's abroad. Written by Frank Doyle and brought to life with Dan DeCarlo’s signature charm—penciled by DeCarlo and inked by Rudy Lapick—this 1965 gem captures the playful rivalry and romantic shenanigans that define the Archie gang. The cover, by Dan and Vincent DeCarlo, perfectly captures the mischievous spirit of the story.
