☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "Brace Yourself," Veronica’s quick thinking kicks into high gear when she hears Archie’s headed to Betty’s for a study session—prompting her to enlist Betty’s mom in calling in Jughead as a chaperone. With the house suddenly full of unlikely companions, Betty sees her chance to get Jughead out of the way, using the promise of food to lure him away and finally have some alone time with Archie. Written by Frank Doyle and illustrated by Dan DeCarlo, with inks by Rudy Lapick, colors by Barry Grossman, and letters by Bill Yoshida, this 1989 Annual Digest captures the classic charm of Riverdale’s teenage antics—complete with a cover by Dan DeCarlo and Jim DeCarlo.
In "Thimble Minded," Veronica shows off a priceless royal thimble worth $30,000, sparking a frantic race when Betty discovers six nearly identical thimbles in her mother’s sewing kit—each one potentially the real one. The mystery unfolds as the girls dive into a hilarious hunt for the true heirloom, testing their wits and friendship in a game of small treasures and big stakes.
In "Over-Dated," Josie finds herself in a sticky situation when she accidentally sets up dates with both Alex and Albert for the school dance. With help from Pepper and Melody, she tries to keep the boys distracted and unaware they’re both chasing the same girl—leading to a chaotic, laugh-filled scramble to keep her double date a secret.
In "Make Believe," Betty and Veronica dive into a classroom project that turns their everyday world upside down, imagining wild scenarios where Archie says no to Betty and Jughead turns down food—just for fun. Written by the team behind the series, this playful six-page tale captures the humor and heart of teenage imagination.
In "Chaperone Chef," Veronica’s suspicion that Archie’s study session at Betty’s house is anything but academic leads her to enlist Betty’s mom in calling in Jughead as a chaperone. With the promise of a meal, Betty tries to lure Jughead away so she can finally have some alone time with Archie—though it’s anyone’s guess how long that plan will last.
