☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "It Could Happen," Smithers flees to England to escape the relentless summer antics of Veronica's friends, only to find his vacation upended when Mr. Lodge discovers the truth behind their stay— their camp counselor jobs fell through. With a generous gesture, Lodge steps in to help, making a surprise donation to rehire them. Written by Dan Parent and Bill Golliher, with art by Parent and Golliher, and a cover by Stan Goldberg and Bob Smith, this Double Digest issue captures the charm and chaos of Riverdale’s summer crew with a touch of heart and humor.
In "Fun in the Sun," Archie swaps his usual beach lounging for a day of collecting bottles and cans, while Reggie dives into a volleyball game with the goal of impressing the Baxter twins—only to find his plans don’t quite go as planned.
Jo and her friends are stuck at the Lodge mansion all summer, and Smithers can’t take it anymore—so he flees to England. When Mr. Lodge discovers their camp counselor jobs fell through, he steps in with a generous donation to bring them back to work.
In "Camp Ahoy Part 2," Jo and the gang find themselves as camp counselors at the famously strict Camp Upachuck, where chaos is just one prank away. When mischievous camper Xavier turns the camp director into a fish to keep his piranha Snapper company, the summer takes a delightfully absurd turn.
In "How Campy!", Xavier’s antics take a spooky turn as he spins a tale of a bloody hook, only to vanish mid-scene—leaving the rest of the campers wondering what’s really going on. With counselors bickering and the mood souring, the usual camp chaos takes a strange, suspenseful twist.
In "Spoil Sport," Veronica takes on Riverdale High’s Annual Picnic games not for fun, but to outshine Betty and keep her from stealing Archie’s attention—turning every harmless contest into a high-stakes showdown.
Chuck lands a trip to San Diego Comic-Con, where he and Archie rub shoulders with convention staff and even catch a surprise visit from Archie Comics editor Victor Gorelick—whose honest feedback on Chuck’s cartooning portfolio might just change everything.
In a lighthearted moment at the baseball diamond, Archie surprises Reggie with a perfectly thrown screwball that sends him striking out—much to Betty’s amused praise. Reggie, ever the competitive one, can’t help but retort that it only makes sense, since it takes one to throw one.
In this lighthearted moment from *Archie's Pals 'n' Gals Double Digest Magazine #95*, Reggie tries to convince Moose he’s telling the truth—only to be met with a punch that sends him sprawling on the sand. As Reggie lies flat on his back, Jughead delivers the punchline with a smirk: now, *that* makes him “on the level.”
Betty’s thoughts drift during a Cooper family picnic when her Aunt Ida casually questions whether Betty and Archie are truly a good match. The doubt lingers long after the laughter fades, leaving Betty quietly wondering if the connection they share is as strong as she’s always believed.
In "All Wet," Mr. Weatherbee takes a surprising turn on the river, outpacing Archie and Reggie in a kayaking outing—only to reveal his secret: his weight is so great it’s literally sinking the kayak, letting him walk along the riverbed. The story plays on classic teen antics with a splash of absurd humor, turning a simple outdoor trip into a hilariously unorthodox adventure.
