Betty & Veronica (Jumbo Comics) Double Digest #224

In "Top Executive," Veronica, sidelined by a painful sunburn, begs Betty to step in and show one of her father's important clients around Riverdale. With a cool head and a knack for charm, Betty agrees—though she’s in for more than just a simple tour.

When Veronica decides to take a solo four-day vacation abroad, Mr. Lodge, ever the overprotective father, sends one of his employees in disguise to keep an eye on her—leading to a tense, awkward, and unexpectedly revealing journey.

Betty takes on a neighborhood lawn-care mission with her new riding mower, eager to help her elderly neighbors—only to discover just how tiring a full afternoon on the machine can be. A simple act of kindness leads to an unexpectedly exhausting afternoon.

In "Out of Control," Archie agrees to take Veronica hiking, but when she insists on going to the beach instead, he refuses—only to find himself left behind when she heads out on her own. The day takes a wild turn as the two navigate their differing plans, testing the limits of their friendship and the unpredictable nature of teenage adventures.

In "Club Date," Veronica spins a playful lie when two visiting boys inquire about joining a private club, claiming her backyard is the exclusive Lodge Pool and Cabana Club. With flair and confidence, she sells the fantasy—complete with mock memberships and a made-up membership fee—turning her family’s yard into a temporary hotspot.

In "The Campus Queens," Betty and Veronica stir up a little mischief in cooking class, spiking their soup with Mexican jumping beans to give the Riverdale team an unexpected boost before their big game—just as the rival team walks by. With a mix of clever sabotage and classic teenage rivalry, the girls take their rivalry to a whole new level, one simmering pot at a time.
