Betty and Veronica Annual Digest Magazine #1

In "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.
