Betty and Veronica Comics Digest Magazine #6
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "The Light Side," Mr. Weatherbee's unwavering belief that Archie is always to blame for school chaos reaches new heights—so much so that Betty decides to prove him wrong by staging a series of pranks herself. Written by Frank Doyle and illustrated by Bob Bolling, with inks by Mario Acquaviva, this 1983 issue sees the gang's usual antics take a playful twist, all under Dan DeCarlo’s classic cover art.
In "Direct Line," Betty and Veronica coolly ignore a new girl’s request for directions to the Chok'lit Shoppe, leaving Archie to step in and guide her—only to warn her that the girls are dangerously jealous. Their pride wounded, Betty and Veronica plot a clever revenge, determined to turn Archie’s confidence into a lesson in manners.
In "The Miracle Worker," Betty confidently takes on making a pizza for the gang, earning unexpected praise for her skills. Jealous of the attention, Veronica hatches a plan to undermine Betty’s recipe—though her sabotage may be harder to pull off than she expected.
In "The Hang Up," Betty goes all out to impress Archie with a unique, handcrafted poster—only for Veronica to counter with a thousand identical copies, turning Archie’s wall into a sea of duplicates. The prank escalates as Betty and Veronica’s rivalry takes a hilariously sticky turn over who truly meant it.
In "Always Archie," Mr. Weatherbee’s unwavering belief that Archie is behind every school mishap puts the teen in a sticky situation. Betty steps in to clear Archie’s name by staging a series of pranks herself—only to find that her efforts might just be making things worse.
