Betty and Veronica Comics Digest Magazine #105

A day at the beach was supposed to be just for the girls — but somehow the boys have shown up anyway! Cover artists Dan DeCarlo and Henry Scarpelli capture the fun perfectly: Veronica lounges on a striped beach chair looking thoroughly pleased with herself, while Betty sits nearby with a knowing expression, a muscular young man hovers attentively, Archie crouches with a notepad, and a dapper butler materializes from the sand carrying a milkshake and burger. This 1999 digest packs in plenty of Riverdale beach-day comedy, with a speech bubble already promising the kind of scheming only Veronica Lodge could engineer.
