Betty #52
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "All's Fair at the Fair," Betty and her friends gear up for the big summer festival, where rivalry, friendship, and a few surprise twists are on the menu. Written by Victor Gorelick and brought to life with Dan DeCarlo’s classic art, Alison Flood’s inks, and Barry Grossman’s colors, this 1997 issue captures the charm of small-town fun. The cover by Stan Goldberg and Henry Scarpelli perfectly captures the lighthearted spirit of the season.
In "Rhyme Time," Betty drifts off after reading nursery rhymes to the twins she's babysitting, only to wake in a dream where her friends twist familiar rhymes into surreal, playful chaos. The story unfolds as a whimsical, offbeat journey through familiar verses gone delightfully askew.
In "Skurf Turf," Betty channels her creativity and nerves into an outlandish water stunt, rigging a snowboard with a tow rope and Ethel’s wave rider for a last-minute bid to win a local contest hosted by a Riverdale TV show. It’s a wild, splashy gamble that puts her skills—and her friendship with Ethel—to the test.
