Betty's Diary #39

A ski resort setting frames this February 1991 issue of Betty's Diary, with the cover by Dan DeCarlo showing Betty writing in her diary in the foreground while Archie relaxes nearby, a skier launches off a slope in the background, and gondola lifts glide overhead. Betty's diary entry says it all: "Sometimes the best way to have fun at a ski resort is: don't ski!!!" — a charmingly relatable sentiment that sets a warm, playful tone. Inside, writer Hal Smith and artist Doug Crane deliver "Practice Makes Perfect," promising plenty of that signature Archie charm.
