In "Make Room for Dilton," Dan Parent’s writing and art bring a classic Archie twist as Betty and Veronica team up to keep Archie away from Ginger—only for Jughead to constantly sabotage their plans in exchange for free meals at the Lopez family’s restaurant. With a clever countermove involving an all-you-can-eat buffet and an unlimited expense account, the girls finally outmaneuver him, all drawn with Parent’s signature charm and D'Agostino’s sharp inks on the cover.
