In "Jump Start," Veronica surprises Archie with concert tickets—only to feel betrayed when he chooses to take Betty instead. Frustrated and fed up, she breaks the fourth wall, directly appealing to artist Dan DeCarlo to rewrite the story. Written by Kathleen Webb and illustrated by Dan DeCarlo with inks by Rudy Lapick and letters by Rod Ollerenshaw, this 1987 issue brings a playful meta twist to the classic Archie dynamic, all on a cover by Dan DeCarlo.
