☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "My Father's Betrayal Part 4," Veronica’s impromptu riverside stunt takes an unexpected turn when a fisherman offers her lunch in exchange for cleaning his catch—leading to a moment of choice that sends her back to paddling alongside Betty. Written by Frank Doyle and brought to life with Dan DeCarlo’s signature style and Jim DeCarlo’s inks, the story captures the classic Archie charm with a touch of playful tension. The cover by Rick Burchett and Terry Austin adds a sharp, nostalgic flair to this 2009 Double Digest installment.
In "My Father's Betrayal Part 4," Jo finds herself caught in the chaos of a protest gone violent, as Hiram Lodge steps in to protect her and try to restore order. With tensions high and emotions running deep, Hiram faces the difficult choice of standing firm or seeking common ground—knowing that whatever he does will shape the future of those he cares about.
In "Up the Creek," Veronica’s attempt to attract a fisherman’s attention by capsizing their canoe leads to an unexpected lunch invitation—on the condition she helps clean the catch. But after a moment of mischief, she’s back in the canoe with Betty, ready to paddle on.
