Betty and Veronica Comics Digest Magazine #115

In "Hopping Mad," Archie’s loyalty to Betty’s marathon training is tested when Veronica’s rare Zambesia owl escapes into the storm-choked woods near the race route. With lightning splitting the sky and the owl vanishing into the downpour, Betty’s chance to help becomes a race against time—just as Archie’s promise to her might be the only thing that can save the day. Written by Bob Bolling and illustrated by Doug Crane, with colors by Barry Grossman and letters by Bill Yoshida, this 2000 issue features a cover by Dan Parent and Jon D'Agostino.
