In "Daddy’s Girl," Betty seizes the chance to spend time with Archie while Veronica is away on vacation, hoping to finally move their relationship beyond friendship. But when their date ends with bowling and sports watching—just like any other buddy hangout—Archie still sees her as a pal, leaving Betty to wonder if she’s ever going to be more than that. Written by Barbara Slate and brought to life with Stan Goldberg’s expressive art, Mike Esposito’s inks, Barry Grossman’s colors, and Bill Yoshida’s lettering, this heartfelt moment captures the quiet ache of unspoken feelings. The cover by Jeff Shultz and Henry Scarpelli perfectly frames the mix of hope and hesitation at the heart of the story.

In "The Good Sport," Betty seizes the chance to spend time with Archie while Veronica is away, hoping to spark something more—only to find herself firmly in "just friends" territory when their date turns into a full-on bowling and sports marathon. Written with a light touch and drawn with classic charm, the story captures the sweet, awkward rhythm of teenage crushes and the unexpected ways love can be misunderstood.
