Betty and Veronica Comics Digest Magazine #7

In "Ring-a-Ding," Archie stumbles upon an abandoned engagement ring and, in a moment of playful impulse, slips it onto Betty's finger. Betty seizes the chance to stir up some jealousy, hoping the gesture will make Veronica believe she's engaged to Archie—only to find Veronica utterly unimpressed, no matter how many times Betty flaunts the ring.

In "Love and Stitches," Betty takes a surprisingly close approach to Archie, claiming she's measuring him for a sweater—though her intentions might be a little more than just knitting. Veronica, not one to be outdone, decides to turn the tables with her own version of the game.

In "Stitch Pitch," Reggie’s world tilts when he discovers his friends are into needlepoint—until Betty brings in her cousin, a pro football player with a surprising passion for the craft. The story finds humor in the clash of expectations, as Reggie navigates a very different kind of gridiron game.

In "If the Spirit Moves You," Archie and the Riverdale basketball team embrace a festive blend of flower power and holiday cheer, spreading politeness and petals with every pass. When Coach Kleats worries their newfound peace-loving spirit will cost them the game, the team surprises everyone by playing with unexpected fire—and winning.

Veronica’s holiday cheer takes a spooky turn when she’s visited by a ghostly spirit after skipping the gang’s Christmas caroling—only to be shown a future where her selfish ways have left her all alone. A festive twist on a classic tale, this 1984 holiday tale from Betty and Veronica Comics Digest Magazine #7 delivers a timely reminder about the season’s true spirit.
