Betty & Veronica (Jumbo Comics) Double Digest #167

Poor Archie looks completely flustered on the cover of this 2009 Double Digest, chin in hand and eyes wide, while a vision of the confident, red-haired Cheryl Blossom floats above his head surrounded by broken hearts. In the background, Betty and Veronica exchange the gossip that's clearly rocking Riverdale — "Can you believe Cheryl Blossom's leaving Riverdale High?" — and Archie's reply says it all: "I can't!" Dan Parent handles both pencils and inks on the cover, capturing that perfectly exaggerated Archie emotional panic. Bonus features spotlighting Katy Keene and Cheryl Blossom make this digest an especially full package.
